I just bought a KAC URX 3.1 31" hand guard and I'm starting to rethink my purchase.It has not arrived yet so I do not have it in hand to really get a feel for it. I also bought one of the deluxe panel kits for the URX. I bought it to possibly replace my PRI gen III and full length top rail in an effort to save some weight, and get a little more ergonomic hand guard. Looks like Ill save about 9 oz with the KAC which isn't much, but its something. The rifle is my do all AR. 16" Rainier Arms Rock creek barrel with rifle length gas, SiCo Spectra 7.62 suppressor, Atlas bipod, B5 stock, Triggertech trigger. I know there are lighter, more modern hand guards out there, but I kind of like some of the classic parts from 5-10 years ago (like the PRI and the URX). Do any of you still have a URX 3.1? Do you like it and does it still seem like a relevant part considering the more recent inventions of key-mod, m-lok and the super light weight rail systems out there? Oh, and just as a last note I do have access to borrow one of the $120 KAC barrel nut wrenches so that part is not an issue. Thanks a lot guys!
