D.Hayden Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I was looking at the Seekins.. but I want to check out carbon ones too. Any other Carbon fiber guards that have flat bottoms? Looking for the long ones (15" - 16" or so) Someone just pointed the Lancer handguards out to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpeltier Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Precision reflex makes one. I have the 12" on my game rifle. Have used their hand guards for years. They are pricey but of high quality. They market it for Piston guns but mine is a standard DI gun. https://www.precisionreflex.com/Detail.aspx?PROD=652086&CAT=9647 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outerlimits Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 lancer long length for 16" is really nice. nut is exactly the same as JP, if you happen to be going from those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Hayden Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 Thanks for those other links.. nice to see some options The Lancers do look good, this would be a new build to replace the aging JP. If you have one.. which model did you go with? I want the 16.5" long if I go with the 18", or the 14.6 if I go with a 16" - still leaning toward the 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash74 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I have the Lancer handguard. The ring on the end of handguard came off at my last 3gun match. It should be easy enough to glue back on but it should not have happened. The handguard did not save any weight over an aluminum one. The barrel nut is a beast and weighs a lot. The carbon fiber part is fairly light so all of the weight is right in front of the magwell. My rifle balances well with a medium 18" barrel. If I had to do it over again, I would save some money and get a Carbon Arms handguard for the lighter weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Tischauser Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I love the AP Customs Rhino Carbon Fiber. Here is my HMR in 7.62. JTRhino10 saves you 10% too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash74 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 That looks just like the Lancer handguard but with mlock instead of slots. Watch the ring on the end by the muzzle, mine came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The outside of the jp part that screws onto the upper receiver is round where the round float tube slides on. The corresponding Lancer part is octagonal as you might have expected to match the octagonal float tube. Now there could be a different lancer tube?
