    I currently have a complete 18" Palmetto PA-10. Just got finished efiling a Form 1 to SBR it. I've decided to go with a 12.5" barrel that I'll purchase when the form is approved. I'm having trouble finding a DPMS low profile handguard 11.5" or shorter. Any suggestions?

    I'll be running it suppressed some of the time so I'd like to keep the muzzle device outside of the handguard. Thanks!

    12.5" 308? Damn, that thing will be a fireball.

    Anyway...low...Troy and Midwest Industries offer low profile. I also beleive you can get the Fortis Switch in low, and if I remember right, Black Rain uses low profile too

    I would have absolutely picked the Fortis if it came with a low profile. Even messaged Fortis and they said they currently have no plans for it.

    I'll have to check and see who sells a shorter Midwest and look into the Black Rain.

    Huh, thought the Fortis did come in low, my bad on that one.

    Centurion might be another option but....dayum

    I may have found it DPMS low profile, M-LOK, 10.6" and under $220 shipped.
