The Strike VIPERHGCBK Viper Carbine Length Handguard AR-Platform Black, Red Inserts Polymer is a drop-in upgrade designed to modernize AR-15 style rifles with a slim, aggressively styled profile. Built from impact-resistant nylon fiber-reinforced polymer, it integrates a red heat shield and M-LOK slots to support lights, grips, and other accessories while maintaining a comfortable, secure hold.

This carbine-length handguard is ideal for shooters who want a lightweight, durable replacement for standard plastic guards without moving to a full free-float system. Its molded hand stops, textured panels, and ventilated design support extended range sessions, training, and general-purpose rifle use. Strike Industries is known for thoughtful, shooter-driven innovation that balances function, ergonomics, and value.
