Product Overview — Lightweight Modularity for the Honey Badger
The Q Honey Badger 6" M-LOK Handguard Kit is purpose-built for shooters who want a low-mass, highly modular interface for lights, grips, sling mounts, and accessories without adding unnecessary bulk to the rifle. The 6-inch length preserves a compact overall package while providing enough rail real estate forward of the receiver for practical accessory placement. Because the kit includes the correct barrel nut and mounting hardware, it removes guesswork from your build or upgrade and simplifies installation.
Key Features & Benefits
Direct Fit for Honey Badger & AR Upper Receivers: Engineered to mate cleanly with Honey Badger-style uppers and most AR-platform uppers with compatible receiver contours.
6" Low-Profile Design: Keeps weight forward to a minimum and maintains a smooth, compact sight/optic picture.
M-LOK Accessory Slots: Industry-standard modular interface for mounting lights, laser modules, QD sling mounts, rail sections, and hand stops exactly where you need them.
Clear Anodized Gray Finish: Durable, corrosion-resistant anodizing that resists wear and provides a modern, subdued aesthetic that blends with gray and FDE builds.
Complete Kit: Includes handguard, Q-specified barrel nut, screws, alignment hardware, and any required shims/parts to mount securely — everything needed for professional installation.
Free-Float Construction: Keeps the handguard independent of barrel pressure and heat transfer for improved accuracy potential and consistent barrel harmonics.
Slim Profile & Ergonomics: Comfortable, snag-resistant contour for aggressive transitions, close-quarters handling, and extended carry.
Weight-Saving Cuts: Strategically machined lightening features reduce mass while maintaining rigidity and strength.

Installation & Compatibility Notes
This kit was designed to simplify upgrades: the included barrel nut and hardware eliminate the most common sourcing headaches when fitting an aftermarket handguard. Typical installation steps:
Confirm the upper is unloaded and secured.
Remove the existing handguard and clean the barrel shoulder/threads.
Install the supplied barrel nut and torque to the manufacturer’s spec.
Index the handguard, secure with supplied screws, and verify alignment with the upper receiver.
Mount M-LOK accessories as needed and perform a function check.
Because Honey Badger uppers can have proprietary contours, this handguard is optimized for that platform; however, many AR uppers with similar interface dimensions will also accept the kit. Always measure and confirm fit before finishing your build.

Maintenance & Care
Wipe anodized surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent if needed; avoid aggressive abrasives that may mar the finish.
Periodically check mounting screws and torque values after initial firing and during routine maintenance to preserve alignment and zero.
Inspect M-LOK slots for burrs or debris before installing accessories to ensure consistent attachment.
