Lancer's new carbon fiber hand guard for the Sig Sauer MPX.

Lancer’s new carbon fiber hand guard for the Sig Sauer MPX.

There’s always lots of soon-to-be-released products to see at the NRA Annual Meeting and Expo. This morning I stopped by the Lancer Systems booth to see what’s new. You may know them from their nearly indestructible rifle magazines, but they also make killer stocks and hand guards from carbon fiber. Why carbon fiber? It’s up to 50% lighter than standard guards.

Sometime in June we should see the first Lancer handguards available for Sigs MPX pistol-caliber carbine. They’re M-Lock compatible for accessories and will come in 4.5, 6.5, 8, 10, and 14 inch lengths. The hand guard is compatible with the Sig takedown pin system so installation takes about 1/2 second and requires no tools.
