From which brand is this handguard?

[Jayjay1]

The barrel is to narrow to the handguard, so that I can´t attach any M-LOK equipment to the rifle.
The M-LOK - nut touches the barrel on the inside of the handguard.

It is an upper from Savage, the MSR15 Recon 2.0 with an 18" barrel.
But even Savage emailed me and said, they don´t know which hand guard this is.

Can you help me?

Yupp!

There are so many different brands/places making them, china is stamping them out like hotcakes. I've found some for $15. just like that. I think they were clearance at Durkin tactical. And half the brand name ones are just rebranded china. Why do you need to know? Just buy one bigger, they advertise the inner diameter.

it's probably whatever factory handguard they used from an OEM either use shorter screws or get a handguard with a larger inside diameter

lots of handguards are really skinny these days because it's the gofaster coolguy thing

Yeah, you don’t need to know anything about that handguard other than the inner diameter- because it is too small. Just measure that and buy another with a larger inner diameter. Make sure it comes with- or you purchase- the accompanying barrel nut.

I let my pants down, how you say over here.
It is because I don´t want to change the barrel nut for some reason, pls accept that, won´t write more about it.

So that I can slip the old one down and the new one in.

Are you in another country where unscrewing the barrel nut is a crime?

Hummmmm, maybe ....

It looks like a similar clamping system to that used by Samson and/or Midwest Industries. Does your handguard clamp to a sleeve that fits over the barrel but?

 

[DemonicLemming]

It's pretty unlikely another rail is going to fit that barrel nut, especially if you're looking at one with significantly different physical measurements. From what I see other places, the MSR15 uses a proprietary barrel nut, so even less likely to work with another random rail.

 

[Jayjay1]

Allright, I will have a gunsmith involved, will cost me as much as the handguard will, but so be it.

Can you tell me, where I can find out the inner diameters of several handguards?

I took a look at Brownell´s, because they have all the brands I´m interested in, but they don´t list the inner diameters.
I´m looking for Geissele, Centurion, Bravo Company and Daniel Defense.

Do you know where I can find those data?

Go to the manufacture's website and look up the specs for the rail you want. They usually have more info on the brand's website vs a distributor website. Very few barrel nuts are universal besides the standard GI barrel nut. Hense the reason manufactures provides a barrel nut and wrench to fit said nut. The only spot you may run into issues on aftermarket mlok rails is right at the gasblock there may not be enough space to fit an accessory on the rail. I have switched to all Midwest Industries SP series which are designed to tuck a suppressor in them and have almost and 1.5 inch inner diameter. More airflow and thicker feeling handguard was the motivation for me.

Just go to the website for the manufacturer. They should have the information. This is just an example.

Is there some reason you can’t do it yourself? All you need is a vise, action block and a wrench.
