New Quick Attach Rail Sections 29/10/2017

I must admit I am somewhat of a Troy Industries fan. I use their products extensively on many of my builds. However, I do have one criticism, I do not like the new attachment method for their Quick Attach Rail Sections. They utilize these tiny threaded tabs that are difficult to maneuver into position and slip around galling the inside of the forearm tube when tightening. I much prefer the older solid flat bar that was threaded in two locations to accept the clamping screws. I understand the desire to innovate but this is not an improvement.

I love the forearms but I'm not sure I want to use these anymore because of this.

Definitely recommended

Great Rail 17/04/2015

This is a great handguard. It's easy to install, looks great, and is comfortable to hold.

Best Price to Performance Option! 08/03/2013

Light is Right. And the Troy Alpha is among the lightest freefloat handguards with full single top rail. The diamiter is small, which combined with the love-it or hate-it Troy "cheese grater" ribbing and holes, provides a great gripping surface; wet or dry, gloved or bare handed. The 13" is great for the 16" and longer barrels. I'd suggest going 11" if you are running a pinned 14.5" barrel. While these handguards come with three attachable rail segments, I prefer not use them if I don't have to, due to weight. That is where the Noveseke accessories come in; their QD sling swival and sling stud attachments make for very low cost, low wieght and nearly zero space features for attaching a sling with a QD and a Harris biopod. Oh, while you're ordering accessories, check out the "Squid Grip"... LOVE THEM!
Sure, if you have the BIG bucks, then the even slimer and lighter Noveseke NSR rails are great (if you can find them!), but for almost half the price of those, these are the value-leader BY FAR!

Highly Recommended!
