The Spikes Tactical BAR2 Free-Float Handguard in the 13.2-inch length (brand part no. SAR2113) is a one-piece free-floating quad rail that Spikes Tactical calls the Big Ass Rail. It is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with a 7075-T6 barrel nut, and both are finished in Type III hardcoat anodizing. The main benefit of the BAR design is for shooters who want to run a suppressor inside the rail, and it also offers heat ventilation and built-in anti-rotation tabs that keep the rail and the barrel nut from working loose. At 13.2 inches it is the longest length Spikes Tactical lists for the BAR2.
