The clamp-on style of handguard attachment, utilized by many manufacturers is both secure and convenient but one problem has always been that clamping the handguard it tends to lift the front end of the handguard. The longer the handguard, the more drastic the effect. If you've ever had to bottom-out the front-sight post of a rail mounted BUIS in order to get the correct elevation, the issue is probably due to this ""lift"" phenomena.Made in the USA - Backed by Dirty Bird Industries' Limited Lifetime WarrantyBarrel Chambered in 5.56 (will also function with .223) 16" Government Profile w/ 1:7 Twist Mid-Length Gas System Black Nitride Finish High Pressure Tested and Magnetic Particle Inspected Sub-MOA GuaranteeBolt Carrier Group Designed for use with both 5.56 and .223 Strategically relocated load bearing surfaces reduce carrier tilt/can't during recoil, thus increasing reliability and longevity Additional wall thickness in the gas exhaust port area for added strength and rigidity High Pressure Tested and Magnetic Particle InspectedHandguard Tough Machined from aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum extrusions.
