Who makes a 6" AR15 handguard

[Waorani]

Looking for a 6-6.25" handguard for a build but only ones I've been able to find are Midwest Ind Combat Rail and SLR Ion Ultralight. I like the SLR and at 6.25" would be perfect but pushing $300 by the time you add cerakote. Surely there's got to be some other alternatives, preferably in FDE?

I got this one (you referenced) to replace the longer handguard on a Springfield Saint AR pistol ... needed to expose the threads to shoot suppressed. Not cheap, but it's awesome and works perfectly for what I wanted. I know it's more than you wanted to spend, but just thought a real-life recommendation would be helpful.

Few things worth having in this sport are inexpensive. Just sayin'.

Just buy one you like and cut it down

Well duh, never thought about that! Ever seen a modern m-lok/keymod/etc rail that you could cut at any point and end up with a flush cut?

It would not be perfect and Not every style will match at 6” but there are ones that will. Go to a shop and measure rails.

Shit, I bet adco would cut and weld one if you need it to be perfect.

Thanks for suggestions but after a little more scrounging, I cheaped out and found an off-brand in FDE for $80. Probably means I'll end up having to get the SLR anyway. I've got a couple of MW rails and had seen the new combat rail but just wasn't
