Lights Out Rail

Features:

• Proprietary Cable Management Channels: Utilizing dovetail channels and covers at the 2, 4, 7, and 10 o’clock positions, the Lights Out rail has a never before offered cable management channel system machined into the handguard.  No loss of any picatinny space while mitigating cable exposure.  The Lights Out Rail is the only handguard with built in cable management.
• Premium Construction: Machined in an aerospace grade facility using aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, our handguard is both lightweight and incredibly durable, ensuring exceptional performance in the most demanding operational environments.
• Free-Float Design: The free-float design enhances accuracy by eliminating contact with the barrel, providing a stable platform for your accessories and optics.
• Camlock Mounting System with Non-Timing Barrel Nut: No need for annoying shims or worrying about lining up your gas tube.  Simply slide the handguard over our barrel nut and torque down the mounting hardware to our recommended specs. (Please see our instructions.)
• Anti-Rotational Tabs: Provide superior lock up when mounting to ensure zero movement from side to side. (Works with Mil-Spec Upper Receivers.  Many billet upper tolerances will not mount with our anti-roational tabs due to the tight machining tolerances that American Animal utilizes.)
• Abundant Mounting Surfaces: Featuring full M-LOK slots along the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, a full Picatinny top rail, and our unique cable management channel system, this handguard allows for maximum customization with a wide range of tactical accessories.
• Superior Ventilation: Strategically placed cooling vents provide optimal heat dissipation, keeping your barrel cooler during rapid-fire sessions and extended use.  Venting also prevents cables from melting under rail covers during extended heavy rapid fire situations.
• Ergonomic Grip: The slim, ergonomic profile ensures a comfortable, secure grip, allowing for better control and maneuverability during shooting.
• Unlimited Customization:  Optional rail covers for a multitude of situations allow for things like  45° mounting of pressure switches, red dots, back up irons, added protection of cables from channel to device, etc.
• Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward installation, this handguard includes all necessary mounting hardware, barrel nut tool, and a detailed instruction manual, making it easy to upgrade your AR-15.
