The definitive modular hand guard, the JP MK III System has been over twenty years in the making, combining the advancements of every handguard JP Enterprises ever developed. With a new enhanced attachment method that combines aesthetic polish and durability, this system accommodates both the stylish, rock-blasted JP Signature tube and the Rapid Configuration tube with its faster rail relocation and new textured finish. Like its predecessors, MK III allows for easy rail mounting at any of the cardinal points along the tube as well as at the 45 degrees while also offering continued compatibility with all JP Tactical Rail accessories. In addition, each rail also includes two JPHGS quick-detach sling studs.
