Strike Industries is known for making some very out-of-the-box items, but this new handguard heads in the other direction. The Strike M4 Quad Rail Handguard mounts on standard carbine ARs, and adds additional rail space within the front sight assembly. Keep reading for all the details.

Strike Industries @ TFB:

Strike’s M4 Quad Rail mounts on the traditional delta ring assembly on guns with carbine-length gas systems. A secondary clamping mechanism sits inside the front sight assembly. Extended side rails mounted to that clamp allow for accessory attachments further forward, which is particularly useful for weapon lights. It also has two QD sling cups at the rear of the handguard for sling mounting.

The M4 Quad Rail Handguard retails for $159 and is available for order directly from Strike.

From the manufacturer:

“This is the Strike Industries M4 Quad Rail Handguard. Strikes patent pending mounting system provides an easy drop-in installation and removal for the end user. Made from aerospace grade aluminum the M4 Quad rail provides lightweight durability in a stylish design. Mil-spec picatinny rails at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock positions provide a multitude of options when attaching accessories like weapon mounted lights, lasers and foregrips.

Additional picatinny rail space is located flush with the front sight allows for even more options when arranging accessories. Two QD Sockets are located at 3 and 9 o'clock rear positions, providing options for both single and dual point sling systems. The Strike M4 Quad Rail brings performance and stylish design to any standard AR platform and is now easier than ever to install.”
