Cobalt Kinetics announced its latest handguard offerings, the Edge and Team, are now shipping to AR-15 consumers. The universal accessories deliver more options to AR-15 platform users.
The Edge features aggressive points on the muzzle end while the Team is designed for practical competition. Machined from a 11-pound block of 7075, the handguards offer a perfectly straight finished part, which the company says helps to keep iron sights centered over the barrel.
Two Picatinny rail sections are available at the muzzle for additional accessories. The handguards also boast M-LOK compatibility on the entire length at three-, six- and nine-o’clock positions. The Edge and Team use a two-piece barrel nut and sleeve to work with a multitude of rifles. Cobalt says redesigning the handguards to work with other AR-15s was no easy task.
