Strike Industries Strike Rail - M-LOK - Free Float Handguard - Black - 7"

The 7-inch Strike Rail in FDE is the pistol and SBR configuration — the shortest length in the Strike Rail lineup at 11 oz. with hardware, built for 7.5-inch and 10.5-inch barrel builds where every inch of handguard length affects maneuverability in tight spaces. The 1.57-inch internal diameter maintains suppressor clearance across the full 7-inch length, which matters most on short-barreled platforms where the suppressor occupies a larger proportion of the total system length and the handguard needs to accommodate it without interference. The partial Picatinny top rail at front and rear keeps optic and accessory mounting intact while the center cutout keeps weight at the minimum for the configuration.

M-LOK slots at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock provide accessory mounting across the handguard circumference, and ambidextrous QD sockets allow direct sling attachment without additional hardware — practical on a pistol-format build where sling attachment points are more limited than on a rifle. The built-in anti-rotation feature indexes against the upper receiver under recoil and torque. FDE anodize — note that batch-to-batch color variation is inherent to the anodization process. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with reinforced steel mounting nut and bolt. Barrel nut torque: 30–50 ft-lbs. Not compatible with most AR gas piston systems. Includes barrel nut, wrench, mounting hardware, Allen key, and shim kit.
