Introducing the ATLAS S-ONE M-LOK Free Floating Handguard for AR-15
The ATLAS S-ONE is the latest innovation from Aero Precision, designed for those who demand both performance and aesthetics in their firearm components.
Product Overview
Machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum, the S-ONE handguards are crafted with a focus on size and weight, making them ideal for lightweight builds. The proprietary ATLAS attachment system offers a durable and reliable mounting platform, maintaining a slim profile while delivering the strength and stability that Aero Precision handguards are known for.
Specifications
- Actual Handguard Lengths: 7.3", 9.3", 10.3", 12.7", 15" (measured from the receiver to the end of the last picatinny slot)
- Available in M-LOK profiles with lengths of 7.3", 9.3", 10.3", 12.7", and 14.94" (Actual Length 15")
ATLAS Attachment System
The new Aero Taper Lock Attachment System (ATLAS) is designed to be both functional and visually appealing. It features:
- Two mirrored tapered locking nuts for evenly distributed clamping pressure
- A custom engineered barrel nut with a turnbuckle screw
- A ratcheting detent for secure design and positive registration during installation
This innovative system ensures even pressure, avoiding distortion of the handguard during installation, a common issue with other systems.
