Breek Arms’ mission is to provide quality parts at competitive prices. Our newly developed RG2-S (Rugged Rail Mod2) Handguard line up is an evolution from our previous lineup. Our Patent Pending locking mechanism uses a wedge block system that puts equal pressure all the way around the barrel nut. This gives you better harmonics and a much stronger mounting solution especially when you’re putting pressure on the end using a bipod or sling. The Newly Released RG2 handguards were developed specifically for suppressor builds, each length is designed to fit common barrel length and leave room for all types of quick attach suppressor mounting solutions. The skeletonized design shaves as much weight as posssible without sacrificing the integrity of the handguard. All edges are chamfered, blasted, then Type 3 Hardcoat anodized for a smooth feel.

I bought the 6.7” handguard for a 7.5” 300 blackout pistol build. I had a hard time finding a high end handguard for the billet upper I used. Most premium handguards have anti-rotation tabs that only work with mil spec upper receivers. This handguard looks like it was made with billet uppers in mind because it lines up flawlessly and looks awesome. Along with the faxon gunner barrel and VG6 gamma 300 brake the completed upper looks amazing. The handguard is reasonably light but super beefy, with the aluminum being a full 1/8” thick and type 3 hardcoat anodized, and while the barrel nut isn’t fancy it works really well. The best part about this handguard is the wedge lock system. It makes it way easier to take off the handguard as opposed to a clamp or screw on handguard. I’m still waiting on some parts for the lower to come in so this build isn’t totally done, but it’s looking fantastic and in no small part thanks to this handguard.

Purchased a stripped billet upper receiver and then had the worst time trying to find a handguard that fit or matched. Purchased two additional handguards before finally finding this one. This handguard fits PERFECT! Nicely done Breek Arms!

I haven't found a better value in a handguard anywhere. It's not super heavy or super light, it's just practical and purpose built. The finish scratches pretty easily so it will look right at home under a truck seat and you won't feel too bad the first time you drop it. It uses a regular crows foot barrel wrench so you already have one. The wedge lock holds tight and so do the screws. The 9.7 pairs perfectly with a 10.5 inch barrel and leaves plenty of room for flashlights, foregrips, and other tactical doo-dads.

I was looking for a 15 inch Handguard to add to my 16 inch barrel and I eventually found this Breek arms Handguard. Receiving this in the mail, I was amazed that this Handguard was being sold for under $150. The finish and the fitment alone are top tier. This is still a slim Handguard even with a full top picatinny rail section.

Picked up the 9.7" version for an SBR upper build that is a 10.5" 300BLK setup. Handguard is nicely finished, heavy enough to be sturdy, and comfortable in the hand. Seems like it's built well enough to be durable in the long-term, but I've owned it for less than a month so I can't make a definitive statement on durability. The supplied barrel nut is robust and will hold well. It fit my 1 1/4" crow-foot perfectly for torqueing the barrel in place. Retention is good, though a slightly different design than I'm used to on other handguards. This one uses two small wedges cross-bolted into openings on the right/left of the handguard. Unlike other HGs I've installed, the cross bolts don't ride in slots in the barrel nut. Instead the inner portion of the two wedges ride in a wide groove in the barrel nut. They do a good job keeping the whole thing from being able to slide forward. The top rail is picatinny spec, but not as tight as I might like for some accessories. Had no trouble installing an MBUS front sight on the rail, and it's so far not shifted or moved. I don't think it will be an issue, though if you were going to forward mount a red-dot or some other electronic sighting device (mine is on the receiver, not the rail), the slightly oversize slots might present an issue. I'd rather have a little extra clearance than the slots be too tight, though, so overall not a huge issue. Like I said, the MBUS hasn't moved yet so I'm good. Mlok slots on this HG are good to go. Accessories fit and install with ease, and hold fast like you expect Mlok to do.The two areas I see where this HG falls short are the price (I bought it at a hundred bucks for the 9.7" HG and a "free" ambi charging handle) and the lack of locator tabs on the rear of the HG where it meets the receiver. The deal on this was good considering the CH is at least decent quality comparable to other $30-50 CHs on the market. But I wouldn't pay that price for just this HG, I don't think. Maybe I would – everything is asininely expensive in the demofascist world we currently endure – but I'd shop harder if the deal wasn't as good on this unit. I suspect one could get a better deal or better equipment or both if you shop, as compared to a hundred for just the HG I'm reviewing here. Not having locator tabs is a nuisance at install, but really shouldn't be an issue during use. It just means install takes longer to align perfectly, and in use, there is the risk of the HG rotating on the barrel nut. That risk exists with my other HGs with locator tabs, but the risk is limited to slight shifts of a few degrees either way. This one could, in theory, rotate 360deg around under high stress. If it does, I'll figure out a way to pin it or it will go down the road in favor of a better option.I gave this four stars. I debated between 3 and 4, and really this is a 3.5 star item, IMO. I rounded up because despite the shortcomings discussed above, it's not a bad piece of kit and right now it's at least relatively cost effective. Time will tell if it's durable under heavy use. I don't really have any immediate concerns, but time will tell. Off the cuff I don't think it's a top tier HG, but of course, it wasn't top tier pricing, either. I actually have a different HG from Optics Planet I was going to use on this build, but it's about a quarter inch too long to clear the can I want to put on the muzzle of my SBR, so I'm going to use it to build a different SBR upper for my dedicated SBR lower. That item isn't available in any shorter (8", maybe?) version. It has the locator tabs and is equally durable/comfortable, but this was the closest available part. I'd give the other guard 5 stars, as I've used it on other builds, but it just didn't fit the use case for this upper. This guard is almost as good, and fits the purpose. It's good kit but it's just not great kit, thus the four stars.

Perfect length for attachment of a direct thread suppressor or a muzzle mount adapter. Good finish, mounted no problems. I wanted to be able to get shims on and a wrench around a GP5 suppressor and this fits fine
