Yeah - Matrix handguards. Made in the US, and better quality than the cheapo ebay & UTG junk. They are also very slim, more so than anything else I know of, and you don't have to time the barrel nut.

I still like Midwest handguards too, but these Matrix pieces really are a great buy for 1/3 the price.

Buy them from Chandler Hardwoods; their stock varies but I've had good luck emailing to ask when a certain model would be available. They show the 15" Foxtrot model (square front cut) for $64 right now. Here: http://www.chandlerhardwoods.com/category-s/1837.htm

This one is the 9" Charlie model (C front cut)
