    Great to hear about the M-LOK AFG. I'll be ordering one as soon as AIM gets them.

The hand stop kit will integrate seamlessly with both, and will be out around SHOT.

    The M-LOK AFG will ship before Thanksgiving. We played with the original AFG and achieved what we really wanted from it. With a bit of a compound angle and a smaller, more minimalist profile, it is more adaptable to different positions on the hand guard, blends well with M-LOK rail profiles, can butt up nicely to the M-LOK MVG, if desired, and still appeals to users of the original AFG/AFG2. I was never a huge AFG user, but I love this thing. It's also going to be a bit less expensive than the original AFG.
    I appreciate the reply and info; it's one of the many reasons I'm a Magpul fan. Looking forward to the bits.

    Will Mid-Length SL Handguards be available before Shot 2015?

In reality, the M-LOK surface would bisect the light if you drew a line straight up. I'm a terrible photographer, but I tried to get a representative view of each in one pic but it's a little off. Anyways, the offset mount is made to support optics as well as clear lasers in certain configurations but it still tucks the lights in out of the way. It also mitigates issues clearing iron sights with an offset light that the cantilever in a 45-degree M-LOK slot might pose. Naturally I think everyone should use MBUS Pros, but if you use a larger front sight you should clear most of them with the Offset mount. Of course, we can't accommodate every possible configuration so in the future a very tiny OD handguard with a large sight may pose issues regardless of the offset mount used, be it ours or another M-LOK manufacturer.
    M4Guru,

    Sir, what handguard is pictured? I'm looking to use that M-lok offset mount for an X300U in the same position. I know the X300 is a little wider than a barrel light, and my front sight will be a CQBL-1. I am concerned about them having enough clearance. The handguard is the MI Lightweight M-lok which appears in photos to be narrower in diameter than the one you are using.

    Thanks!
    Before you suggest that licensing, background checks, or other restrictions for the 2nd Amendment are reasonable... Apply those same ideas to the 1st and 4th Amendments. Then tell me how reasonable they are.

    That's a Geissele MK8. MI is a great handguard and I have a few, but I don't have a CQBL-1 top mock it up unfortunately.

    Thanks ALOT Magpul. I absolutely hated the appearance Keymod system but loved what it did for the weight and profile /modularity of a weapon. The Mlok system actually doesn't make my eyes bleed and seems to do the same job ( looks good actually).

    Thanks! It pulls the Scout in very close to the handguard, and has two offset positions to give clearance around some front sights.
