I think I may be going with the 15.5" O2 Lite handguard!

Is the 02 durable? Ive seen them and they do look VERY light but also kinda flimsy to? Am I decieved? Might also want to look at the ALG HG's I'm considering the V0. https://algdefense.com/ergonomic-modular-rail.html I'm going through same process and have a thread posted in the "semi auto" section. If your interested.

I've watched the "torture test" and was impressed - I would never drop my hand guard or rifle from the roof of my house - but If I had to, this thing looks like it would hold up. I was really impressed by the video.
I have decided to go with the O2/15.5" and will be ordering it soon. I am planning to cerakote the lower/upper/hand guard the same color - just haven't decided on which color!

Not having to time it was a big draw for me.
