Aero Precision M5 Enhanced Handguard 15″ (no barrel nut)

Our Enhanced M-LOK (EM) Handguards provide a lightweight free float design for your custom M5 .308 build. The M-LOK system allows advanced modularity past the current 1913 picatinny rail system.

• 1.78″ inside barrel nut cut area diameter
• Compatible with low profile gas blocks
• DPMS High Profile (.210) Tang
• Gen 2 Feature – Quick disconnect sling socket at the 3, 6 and 9 o’clock positions
• Gen 2 Feature – Additional milling along flats to aid with gripping and add visual appeal
• Gen 2 Feature – New profile for the continuous picatinny top rail

Are you attaching this handguard to a standard threaded upper receiver?
Make sure to select “Yes” under the Handguard Barrel Nut option above (shims included). Our handguards use either the DPMS/Aero or Armalite interface and do not work with a standard barrel nut. If you are using our M5E1 Enhanced Upper Receiver, no additional pieces are needed. Purchased with a handguard, the M5 Barrel Nut is $20 ($40 when sold separately).

*Please note – This handguard is specific to the M5 .308/M5E1 platform. It is not compatible with the AR15/M4E1
