MOE Mid-Length Hand Guard Now Shipping

The Magpul MOE Hand Guard for AR15/M16 rifles with mid-length direct impingement or piston gas systems combines the light weight of a standard hand guard with modular flexibility. Slots at the two, six, and ten o'clock positions allow for optional mounting of Picatinny rail sections for tactical lights and other accessories. Reinforced, heat-resistant polymer construction provides operational durability without the weight and expense of an aluminum rail hand guard. Front extensions and lower lip provides additional operator protection from hot front sight assembly.

Excuse my ignorance: Will these fit the midlength Armalite AR10?

No idea, the only calibrated scale I have is a dope scale at HQ. My bathroom scale isn't much help for stuff like this.

You mean to tell me you can't find a scale to use from some small time crack head tweaker? LOL. Of course it is evidence but can't you just say hold on Lt. let me weigh my stick real quick?

Cheers mate.

Put my FDE mid-length MOE on this evening. Ordered from BCM. Friday order, Monday delivery. Doesn't get much better than that.

Fit is very nice. Small detail improvements over the carbine version. Heat shield seems to be attached better. Bought the MVG and the interface was flawless.

So when can we expect to see more color options available for the Mid-length's? Any rumor of any companies going to run any Digital or Multi-cam patterns on these, like Grant offered on some MOE gear a while back? I wish Magpul would sell them with pattern options, so every piece you bought would match-up perfectly...

The FDE was great, but also hoping for some foliage green, which works great in areas here where there is glacial moraine with that greenish-gray glacial till gravel everywhere.

I'm looking for FG or OD... I like FDE and the way it looks, but plain and simple, we just don't have any sand in central KY... lol

But you do have brown tree trunks, bushes, dead leaves / Fall leaves, etc...

FDE fits in a lot of places you wouldn't think.

(and if you mix FDE and greens on the same gun it will fit in even better)

True, my first AR was entirely Duracoated in FDE with all FDE furniture, FDE Troy's, All but the selector, barrel, mag-release, battery-lever, take-down pins, basically anything that needed to manipulate flawlessly was left untouched. It looked very nice, but didn't really "blend" like the OD and FG does...

Of course right now I'm looking for a set of beat-up recievers or a beat-up complete rifle to try my own camo's on... so I guess furniture color isn't EXTREMELY important on it...

I still want an OD or FG Mid-Length MOE though, to get back on topic...
