Salem 6 Hand Guards Available

how light is that S6 handguard?

 

I've been forgetting but want to start a thread where everyone weighs them all, and get some stickys up for various builds to suit users to their purposes.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I heated my XN's guide rod with a heat gun and it came out easily with a stud puller. I filed a bit of the alignment pin on the back plate instead of drilling the receiver. I had to dremel some plastic inside the upper in the front to clear the barre,l maybe 1/8". No problems with the op rod nuts on mine. I haven't put rails on yet. I think the shorter handguard and operating rod drops a few ounces probably.

I like the fit and feel over the stock handguard.

Oh yeah the guide rod is solid.

The Hand Guard is pretty light since the top rail is plastic. I think the three rails I added were heavier than the hand guard..lol
