The HOT RAIL is a free float mlok handguard, with a distinguishing feature of having a forward extending picatiny rail. This allows the user to keep the laser forward, completely unobstructed, while creating more room on the handguard for an optimum grip position. This also keeps the laser at the ideal height over bore, and eliminates the need for high optic/laser mounts. The HOT RAIL is made from 6061-T6 extruded aluminum. It comes in two finishes: Black cerakote, or FDE TAN cerakote. It is available in the following lengths: 7", 8", 9.5", 10.5", or 13.6". THESE ARE NOT UPPER LENGTHS. YOUR UPPER LENGTH IS BASED ON THE BARREL LENGTH. WHATEVER YOUR UPPER LENGTH IS, GO ONE INCH DOWN IN SIZE (or close to) FOR YOUR HOT RAIL. Example: if you have a 10.5 upper, it needs a 9.5 HOT RAIL. The length of the HOT RAIL is the length of the bottom portion of the rail, not including the extended picatinny portion. The HOT RAIL is intended to be used in conjunction with a suppressor. We do not recommend exposing an IR laser to direct muzzle blast from unsuppressed fire. SEE INSTALL GUIDE BELOW FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
