Magpul's MOE SL (for Slim Line) replacement furniture promises "sleeker profiles and optimized feature sets." This translates into gear that adds utility without adding a lot of bulk to your carbine.

The SL Handguard offers M-LOK-compatible slots at the 2-, 6- and 10-o'clock positions to accept Mil Spec 1913 rails or direct-attach accessories. Additionally, the guards cover the bottom of the delta ring to allow greater purchase in the same size handguard.

A slimmer, sleeker handguard that offers greater ability to attach lights, lasers and other accessories? All the while maintaining the ease of installation and affordability Magpul has become famous for providing? Just when you think the former CO company couldn't surprise you, they come out with something like the SL series.

MSRP: $34.95. Currently available only in black and for carbine-length gas tubes only.
