The Battle Arms Development Workhorse Handguard (brand part no. BAD-WH-HG-MLOK-6.7) is a 6.7-inch free-floating M-LOK rail machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in black anodize for AR-15 and AR-10 builds. Battle Arms Development placed M-LOK mounting slots at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions and skeletonized the areas where M-LOK isn’t needed, trimming weight without giving up strength. A full-length 1913 mil-spec Picatinny rail runs along the top at 12 o’clock, notch-cut to match the upper receiver and shave a little more weight off the build.
