LOCKING ANTI-SLIDE PLATE
The VLCN solves a problem that plagues most rails on the market - handguard sliding.
With our proprietary anti-slide plate that interfaces with a groove in the barrel nut, the VLCN is locked to the upper - ensuring that it won't go anywhere.
ANTI-ROTATION TABS
Forward sliding is a problem that's solved with the anti-slide plate, but what about lateral rotation?
The VLCN has built in anti-rotation tabs to prevent any kind of rotation.
By combining the anti-slide plate and anti-rotation tabs, the result is a rock solid fit - no matter how hard you run it.
LIGHTWEIGHT, INCREASED VENTILATION
Aggressive machining cuts throughout the rail serve 3 critical functions:
1) Significantly slash excess weight
2) Increase ventilation to cool both your handguard and barrel
3) Steep angles prevent fingers from sliding into grooves
