I know the question wasn't directed towards me, but I'd like to comment. SLR's are now my go to handguard. They are extremely well built, light, and they look great. They also come with so many options that you'd be hard pressed not to find something in their line up that would suite your needs perfectly.

I currently own 3 and will be adding another one in the near future.

Thanks for the reply. The only problem I didn't anticipate with the 1.35 ID was I'd have to change my gas block. It's Mike's own clamp on design. That and it's a .875, so I'm really pushing clearance with nothing less than a low pro set screw gb. I'm waiting for SLR to offer a Shot Show special on the handguard, which they said would happen. RighttoBearArms.com has good prices on several SLR's but not the model I'm looking for.

These are my latest two builds. The first one is had a RRA upper, lower, and bcg paired up with a Wilson 24" fluted barrel, Magpul stock & a Strike Industries Strike rail. It's a solid 1/2 MOA gun with 62 gr American Eagle. Haven't tried the good stuff yet. The second gun is an AR10 6.5 creedmoor build. Pretty much the best of everything went into this gun. Ascend Armory Match Billet Receiver set, JP Low Mass Bolt Carrier with JP HP bolt, JP silent capture spring, Draco's 22" barrel, Area 419 Sidewinder brake, Fortis Switch Rail & Mapul PRS stock. It's been shooting .30-.45" inch groups at 100yds with Hornady 143gr ELD-X ammo. Headed to Kansas to bird & coyote hunt in November. I hope to stretch the legs of the 6.5 out there.

When I first bought this rifle it was a DPMS Lo-Pro Classic. This past spring I bought a Bear Creek Arsenal upper and sold the old DPMS upper. The upper is a 24in fluted barrel in .223 Wylde 1:8 twist 15in Keymod handgaurd. I have a 4-12x40mm Bushnell on it at the moment but thinking of going with something else when I get some money to do so.

Here is my very old and heavy Bushmaster Varminter. I switch between this and my 22-250. I would not get rid of this tack driving machine ever....
