The Rise Armament RA-905 Handguard (brand part number RA905150BLK) is a 15-inch, free-floating M-LOK handguard machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in black anodizing for the AR-15. The free-floating design keeps the barrel from touching the handguard under load, which helps tighten group sizes compared to a clamped factory forend, while a slim center section stays comfortable and easy to grip for more controlled shooting. Six quick-disconnect sling mounting points ring the handguard at 360 degrees, giving a shooter sling placement options no matter how they carry the rifle, and a Picatinny top rail keeps the sight plane consistent with the receiver for co-witnessed optics. Installation is a straightforward slip-on process that does not require a barrel nut swap on most standard AR-15 uppers.
