School me on keymod

New upper is here. Looking at a hand stop and light (offset).

What's good?

[GUNSICK]

For the offset light just get a rail section and separate mount. Avoid Noveske polymer hand stop covers they are almost impossible to get on. Search around known vendor websites most have keymod accessorie sections. So many choices.

Are you looking to go free float or drop in?

My Fortis REV free float handguard just arrived this morning on Gunsicks recommendation. This thing is badass, and the 12" version weighs in at an amazing 9.8 ounces.

It's a free float, from PSA. Bought a full upper.

Any chance we can expand this into comparing keymod and mlok?

[24Pink14Stink]

Hell yes. Guessing they aren't compatible?

Ah, misread your first post. I thought you were looking for a complete handguard, I missed the handstop.

Keymod and Mlok are both pretty universal, there are plenty of accessories available for both. And for those that are picatinny, you can simply buy small railed sections, just what's need. It's nice that they keep weight down and also dissipate heat better. Try holding onto a bare drop in quad rail after 200 rounds. Gets pretty toasty.

I like the magpul stuff. Light, pretty sturdy. Just wasn't sure if mlok fit on a keymod rail without some kind of adapter.
