Upgrade your AR-10 or .308 platform with the **Fortis SWITCH M2 15.3" M-LOK Free Float Handguard** in black. This extremely lightweight yet robust free-float rail system is engineered for the DPMS high-profile .308 pattern, delivering exceptional rigidity, modularity, and a streamlined profile while keeping weight to a minimum—perfect for precision builds, tactical setups, or any .308 AR where balance, heat management, and accessory mounting flexibility matter most.
Featuring Fortis' innovative quick-detach lever system for fast installation and removal, the SWITCH M2 offers a continuous top Picatinny rail for optics and full M-LOK slots at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock for lightweight accessory mounting. Machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum with a durable black anodized finish, this handguard provides superior strength and heat dissipation without the bulk of traditional rails.
