    Quad handguard - what buttstock

    I know the quadrails are heavy. I'm building my next AR and I'm tired of the full lenght mlok and keymod handguards. I'm thinking a 12" quadrail on a 16" barrel will look nice. What buttstock will help balance the weight? It will have a 1-8 Vortex strike eagle as the optic.

      I've always wondered if I should drill some holes in the handgun to lighten it up.

                          I find the Magpul ACS stock makes a good counter balance. Its what I chose for my MK18. Don't forget to cover up some of those quad rails unless you enjoy your hands getting chewed up.

                              I was leaning towards the Magpul ACS. That looks like a nice combo.
