Solid gear
Used on 9mm PCC build. Easy install. Solid lock up. Fit & finish is fantastic. ID is perfect for recessed linear comp or suppressor. It does not have integral QD mounts, but that is easily rectified. Easy ordering and quick shipment from optics planet.

Great rail - LOVE ade
Solid construction, light weight for the size, quality finish. The best part is that they give you everything you need to install this on your build. I will certainly use their rails on ALL my future builds.

Easy Install.Solid.Perfect length
I bought this handguard for my first AR pistol. I went with a 10.5 inch barrel and this 12 inch handguard length was perfect to get the look I was going for. the 3 inch KAK flash can fits perfectly and sticks out just enough. The installation of this piece was super easy and the fit and finish is great. I do wish that they sent an aluminum piece of picatinny rail with it instead of polymer, but it was basically free so I cannot complain. My suppressor fits nicely under the handguard with just enough clearance for mounting mlok accessories.

Great Large Diameter Free float rail
This rail has 1.75” diameter giving you plenty of extra room for suppressors I’m assuming since that is what it was intended for but I don’t own any suppressors to give an honest review on that. The reason why I got this is the extra room to have room for a wider range of low profile adjustable gas blocks. My slim rails I have from ade and Fortis are so slim it was difficult to find the perfect size adjustable gas blocks to fit inside them which limited my options and wasn’t able to use a couple of the ones I preferred to have due to them being to wide to fit inside the free float rails. this eliminates that issue and I have large hands anyways so the extra thickness of the rail isnt an issue. Plus having my hand just that little extra distance away from the hot barrel and gas block makes me not as worried about them heating up the rail too after some rapid firing since I prefer not to wear gloves if possible without risking being burned.

Just what I needed
I wanted a handguard that looked good, was lightweight, had a rock solid mount, and was wide enough to hold a large suppressor inside of it. This one does it all. On top of that I've recieved numerous compliments on it from everyone thats seen it.

Great for Suppressors
I chose this for a 300bo pistol I was building. The ADE handguard has a large enough diameter to allow suppressor to fit inside. I mounted a Mystic X on a 8in. barrel and it was just what I was looking for. Installation of this handguard is easy and straight forward. Has the T markings on the rail, excellent build quality. If you are looking to mount a suppressor inside you handguard

Great Handguard but
Preface my decision to say no for recommending. Dings in exact same place as 1st one. I have ordered this handguard once before. First one had some scratches on it. located on left front of handguard by rail and rear of handguard same side. I will presume that this is from multiple products rubbing together, hopefully. Overall, I like the look of the handguard as it has M-lok and is the right size I need. 2nd one arrived today and looks exactly the same as the first one ordered. If these are stored on a shelf hook, then that might account for the exact dings in the same spots. I wanted brand new. Guess I will chalk it up to wear and tear or being banged around with like products.

Ade handguard
The rail come in and looked great fit good and was easy to install. The only problem I had was the barrel nut has holes all around and my dust cover rail goes through the hole and will slip out.

Fits AAC Tirant9
Exactly what I was looking for. I originally bought the M3 series handguard but my suppressor is just a little too tight at 1.6" OD. I returned the handguard and bought the SP version. It fits and looks great. Plenty of room for any suppressor. OpticsPlanet was great to work with swapping the products. They gave me a few options to fit my situation best.

I love the handgaurd.
I love the handgaurd. It was wide enough to fit over my strike industries Opressor blast shield. And when i get a surpressor it will fit over that! Well made and looks great!! I got the 12.5inch mlok and it is super sweet!!

Great handguard
Fit on my New Frontier Billet 9mm upper very well, the anti-rotation tabs just clear. Install was painless, fits tight and feels secure. Love the extra circumference for accommodating my suppressor. Finish looks nice and matches all the black anodizing on my AR pistol.

ADE handguard
Great rail other than it being soak with oil and discolored when I got it. Not sure why that wasn’t caught when it was shipped in the first place. The packing had visible liquid in it when I took it out of the box so that was kind of careless to ship a damaged part out.
