LaRue Tactical AR15 13.2 Handguard LT15-13.2
The ultimate SPR handguard with LaRue Locking System.

Ideal for 16"-20" barreled uppers that need maximum rail space. The 13.2's length covers all gas blocks, including full-lengths, providing true free-float. Our two-pin proprietary barrel nut system with its locking anti-slip plate, sets LaRue handguards apart from the competition. Once properly installed, there is no chance of movement whatsoever. The side and bottom rails are tucked closer to the barrel, keeping the profile narrower and more streamlined. LaRue handguards also include integral QD sling-swivel sockets at the base of each side for convenient mounting 2-point slings. Additionally, our Free-float Rail system provides an excellent heat-sinking feature that pulls throat-damaging heat away from the chamber area. Another heat-sinking benefit is the elimination of pressure-spikes, which some feel is the cause of a large part of pre-mature bolt failures.

Comes complete with Allen wrench, vial of blue Locktite and Instructions.

  • Weighs 1.132lb.
  • CNC-machined out of aluminum
  • Integral QD sling-swivel sockets on both sides
  • Hard coat anodized, with T-Numbers
  • Low-profile bottom and side rails
  • Special rail cuts allow both mil-issue and standard rail covers

    Excellent rail. Looks great on my SPR. I find it hard to believe that LaRue wouldn't exchange the rail for the person below, there's got to be something more to that story. However, good heads up for those with a piston system. LaRue is top notch all around. One of the best rails on the market.

    Excellent construction, very durable and solid rails, easy to install with the correct tools even if you're not a gunsmith. The anti rotation feature works well. I deducted one star because it's not gas piston compatible, and that wasn't disclosed when I bought mine, and LaRue wouldn't do an exchange for a shorter one. Assuming you don't have a need to convert to a piston system then I would definitely recommend this rail. Just to clarify, it's piston incompatibility lies in the internal dimensions if using a completely covered system like the Osprey. Obviously you have to choose the correct length of rail if you use an exposed piston system, and provided that you did, I think it would work fine.

    Purchased a 13.2 rail for my AR-15. This is my first rail so I do not have anything to compare it against but I was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship. Like everything that comes from LT it is expensive...but it works the first time. Despite the additional expense, the gunsmith that did the install said that he would recommend LT rails to future clients.

    I purchased the 13.2 rail for my varmint rifle. Install was very straight forward, everything went together perfectly and my rifle now looks awesome as well as being extremely functional with a larue quick disconnect bipod mount and a harris bi-pod creating the ultimate p-dog slayer.
