    Troy TRX, and the Wilson Combat rail looks sweet too.

    I also like the looks of the handguard on LaRue's new OSR:

    Hey H, how are you doing today?

    Float rails?

    LaRue of course.. Made in Texas and endorsed by hard use users. More function over form. What more do you need?

    Aesthetically though.. Personally I like slender forends like the Troy Extreme. Continuous monolithic rail on top with the ability to add rails as needed for lights and bipods. The only thing I'm not sure about with the Troy Extreme is how much heat is transferred to the shooter through the large holes. Anybody fire some fast strings through their Troy Extreme?

    Wilson Combat's railed forend looks good. I like the way the side rails are shorter allowing a narrower gripping area.
    We are now seeing the gap between red states and blue states widen significantly. At what point do they separate?

    It depends on the rifle. I like the smooth WOA varmit tube on the 20" barrel. Don't need rails as I won't be adding a lot of accessories. The 9" MI on the pistol is nice, cheap, locks tight, and has plenty of room to hang things if needed. I still need a muzzle device for the pistol, along with getting irons and scope in.

    I like the Daniel Defense Lite rail, continuous across the top. LaRue's OSR fore end as well. That and the DMR-10's fore end from JET.

    JP/VTAC because it is simple, clean and you can add rails.Fits my hand, not too big, not too small. Quality has always been good. Not tacticool but great on a hunting rifle. Also looks nice with your extreme barrel contour!

    I really like the Vltor Casv-M and the DD Omega rails. In fact, I have them both now.

    Man there's some nice looking forearms out there. I tried some of the quad rails, and I liked them. However, I went back to a YHM smooth customizable because I felt I could get a more consistent grip on it. Also, the only thing I would attach to it would be maybe a BUIS or a bipod.
