B5 MLOK HNDGRD CARB LNGTH BLK

Description

The B5 Systems M-LOK Handguard is built for the shooter who wants modern accessory mounting without committing to a free-float conversion. It drops straight in using the rifle’s existing delta ring, so there is no new barrel nut to torque, no gas system work, and no need to re-time or re-index anything. If you run a standard carbine-length AR-15 with a factory clam-shell handguard, this replaces it in the same time it takes to remove the original.

The body is composite, which keeps weight down and avoids the thermal conductivity of aluminum — useful because the handguard sits close to the barrel. An integrated stamped aluminum heat shield inside the housing handles the actual heat management, giving your support hand a buffer from sustained fire without the outer surface becoming a heat sink in cold weather. The slim profile and built-in handstop improve purchase and index point compared to the rounded factory handguard, which offers neither.

M-LOK slots run on all six sides, so lights, lasers, foregrips, and similar accessories mount without adapters or rail sections. The handguard fits both round and triangle handguard caps, which covers the majority of carbine-length delta ring setups without requiring you to identify your specific cap profile beforehand. At 3.90 ounces, it adds negligible weight over the factory part it replaces. This is a straightforward, functional upgrade for a working carbine.
