Bwillis Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Smoke composite depending on your comp 13.5” hg if you have a mbx comp 13”hg. Tell him you shoot competition for 20% off Edited June 11, 2019 by Bwillis Link to comment
SpaceMan Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Best length is whatever your prefer. i have a brigand arms and love it Link to comment
RAINY0DAYS Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Coda has the best barrel nut/mount design compared to Isler or Smoke, but other than that it's preference. I also prefer octagonal handguards, so it made the choice pretty easy for me. I do think the Coda might be slightly heavier though. Sent from my moto x4 using Tapatalk Link to comment
ABQautoxer Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Probably not a many people have tried them all. I have two Smoke's and love them and would buy another from them in a heartbeat. As for length, we are using the 12", I grab right out to the end but never wish for longer. Link to comment
Aircooled6racer Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hello: There are less expensive carbon options out there like the Taccom and KAW Valley. Both are smaller diameter which I like and anything shorter than 15" should work just fine with a 16" barrel. I just built an upper using a Kaw Valley carbon handguard but have a Taccom on my 15/22. Thanks, Eric Link to comment
Matt1911 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Taccom is probably the best bang for buck out there. I use them on my PCC and my .22 steel challenge rifle. No complaints whatsoever. Link to comment
Aircooled6racer Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hello: Here is the Kaw Valley carbon fiber handguard. Thanks, Eric Link to comment
Aircooled6racer Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hello: Weight of the handguard is super light maybe 8 ozs with the nut. I never actually weight it. I just know it is super light, just the way I like it. Now to work on the lower next. Thanks, Eric Link to comment
CharlieD Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) My vote is for the Smoke Composites, it’s a small diameter handguard for PCCs, and the slots in the handguard add grip when your hands get sweaty. With the discount they are only about $140. This is a 12” in the pic. Edited June 11, 2019 by CharlieD Link to comment
TNREDNECK Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I go with the smoke, great product and customer service second to none!! Link to comment
egd5 Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Coming from someone who could tear up a steel ball, how durable are the carbon fiber handguards. I'm looking at the Smoke because it's price seems more reasonable and I like that you can get a top rail on it. But I wonder how it will hold up to competition and just wear over time.
