The ATLAS R-ONE is Aero Precision's handguard line. Machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum, the R-ONE handguards are designed with size and weight in mind, providing the perfect handguard for your lightweight build. Aero’s ATLAS attachment system is a durable and dependable mounting platform, maintaining a slim profile while providing the strength and stability Aero Precision handguards are known for. ATLAS features two mirrored tapered locking nuts that provide evenly distributed clamping pressure across a custom-engineered barrel nut with a turnbuckle screw and a ratcheting detent to ensure positive registration during installation. All hardware mounting parts are included with the purchase of an ATLAS Handguard.
