Description
The VKTR Industries VK-1 M-LOK handguard is a slim, lightweight, and low-profile rail designed specifically for the modern AR-15/M16 platform. Measuring 9.85″ in length and finished in Magpul Flat Dark Earth (FDE), this handguard is machined from aircraft-grade, heat-treated aluminum for strength without excess bulk.
A continuous M1913 Picatinny rail runs along the 12 o’clock position for mounting optics, back-up sights, and accessories, while the sides and bottom of the handguard use the M-LOK attachment system for lights, lasers, foregrips, and other accessories. Integrated cooling slots help dissipate heat during extended firing sessions.
Designed as an integral part of the VK-1 self-regulating gas piston system, the VK-1 handguard allows rapid access to the gas piston components by simply loosening a single Allen screw at its base. This makes service and maintenance of the piston system straightforward and field-friendly, and the handguard installs on the dedicated VK-1 barrel nut for a clean, secure fit.
At 9.85″ long, this handguard is well-suited for carbine- and mid-length AR-15/M16 builds, providing ample real estate for accessories while maintaining a clean, snag-free profile.
