“Very lightweight. Nice texture, slim profile, no slip and comfortable to handle even in the rain. It's shipped with the specific barrel nut and tool that fits it, as well as the locking key to mount it. The barrel nut is designed so that you don't need to time it really, but they also supply shims just in case.
Mine was slightly too long for a 12.5" barrel (about .3 of an inch) to be used with a Sig suppressor and had to be carefully polished down to keep the base of the suppressor from touching the end of the guard. That went well and only took a few minutes. Love this handguard, and would buy another if I need one.”
“The handguard had a clump of overspray on the picatinny rail but I pulled it off and was able to touch it up. It wasn’t a big flaw and unless you know where it is, without a thorough inspection you wouldn’t notice it since touch up. Weapon came out looking pretty good overall.”
“This is the first time I've used an Aero handguard. I was very impressed. It's solid, fits great, and has an ingenious locking system. The finish is great. The only improvement would be a QD sling attachment near the muzzle. Of course you can add one via mlok.”
