Who uses carbon fiber handguards?
The stars have aligned correctly and I now have confirmation that there are, indeed, uppers inbound to my corner of Tampa. After this six month exercise in patience (Yay, RRA! :rolleyes:), I've started thinking about the things that'll actually need doing to the upper. The upper as a whole will basically go from me to Grant at G&R to do whatever he can do to help mitigate it being an RRA upper (BCG staking, chamber reaming, etc.).
One of the first upgrades I had in mind was replacing the basic plastic handguards with some sort of free-floating tube. I don't have the coin to drop on the $260+ rail systems, so the carbon fiber ones look like a viable option. The ones I had in mind are Briley, Clark Custom, and Hiperform.
For those of you who have and/or have used carbon fiber handguards, what did you like about them? What didn't you like?
