Centurion cmr vs geissele mk 14/16

[03machstock]

Putting together a rifle and I’m torn between hand guards. It’s a 16” barrel shot suppressed, lpvo gun I’ll use to shoot local 2 gun matches and take carbine classes with. I’d like a 15” mlok handguard. I really like the looks of the centurion cmr, but not sure how durable they are. The others would be the geissele mk 14, or slightly larger mk16, which I’m sure are plenty durable, I just don’t like as much. Iv never held any of them. Anyone have an opinion? Other similar handguards they’d recommend?

The geissele mk16 is nice I was thinking of this for my next one:

I have a cmr-12 on a 14.5 rifle I built for comps. It’s plenty durable the profile is similar to a BCM KMR/mcmr. It has a 1-6 and gets shot suppressed mostly. It’s been bumped and banged around no issues so far.

Durability is hardly a consideration for civilian use of almost any decent handguard on the market. They don't just shatter into pieces if you drop them.
