Firefield FF34057 Edge 6.62" M-LOK Handguard AR-15 Carbine 2-Piece

The Firefield FF34057 Edge Handguard transforms standard carbine-length AR-15 platforms with precision-engineered M-LOK compatibility and lightweight aluminum construction. This 6.62-inch handguard replaces factory plastic guards while maintaining the familiar carbine profile shooters expect.

What Makes This Different

Unlike basic polymer handguards, the FF34057 Edge features machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction that provides superior rigidity without excessive weight. The two-piece design simplifies installation over existing gas systems, eliminating the need for specialized tools or gas block removal. At 6.62 inches, this handguard covers the carbine gas system while providing additional M-LOK real estate compared to standard A2 handguards.

Key Features

• 6061-T6 aluminum construction for enhanced durability and heat dissipation
• M-LOK mounting system accommodates modern accessories and attachments
• Two-piece drop-in design fits standard carbine gas systems
• Black matte finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
• 6.62-inch length provides optimal balance of coverage and maneuverability
• Compatible with standard AR-15 carbine-length platforms
• Maintains factory handguard cap compatibility

Field performance demonstrates the advantages of aluminum over polymer in sustained firing scenarios. The material's thermal properties help manage barrel heat during rapid fire sequences, while the rigid platform maintains zero for mounted optics and accessories. Law enforcement and competitive shooters benefit from the consistent mounting surface that M-LOK provides compared to traditional rail systems.
