NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!

outstanding. I've been looking for a very low-profile handstop and thinking I'd have to ultimately fabricate something (i.e. pay my machinist to fabricate something). can you advise any details on pricing/release date?

Todd,

Do you have any information on weights of the various lengths that can be released yet?

Concept looks great.

I don't have any pricing or times yet. The handguard will start production shortly, I expect the plastic will take a bit longer.

The pre-production 11" handguard is 10oz.

i think if you can compete with pricing on troy trx extreme products, you'll never be able to make them fast enough...

Todd,

Will this rail attach to a standard barrel nut?

[-k-]

No, the GI barrel nut is too short and does not support the handguard enough in our opinion.

The NSR is a substantially better rail, they would lose money and be stupid to try to compete in price against a lesser product.

I am glad to hear you feel it's a substantial improvement over the trx extreme, i look forward to seeing one in person.

competitive means, to me, just that - not necessarily less expensive but priced at a point that still represents good value for its cost compared to other products in its space. for example, my cost for the 11" trx extreme is $140. if the 11" nsr comes out and is in the $185 - $200 range, i would consider that competitive given the benefits which have been advertised in this thread. if it's (for argument's sake) priced @ $300, then to me it's no longer competitive as I would likely be unwilling to pay twice my current cost to replace a product (the trx extreme) that i have (so far) been very satisfied with.

everyone's got their own wallet and their tolerance(s) for cost, and my opinions represent a sample size of only one.
