    10.5" handguard advice

    Looking for advice on 10.5" slim handguards. There's several Midwest Ind. offerings that seem to meet my needs. I guess I'm not sure if I'd ever have any need for m-lok positions beyond the 3,6,9? and If QD sockets are that valuable to have near muzzle instead of just by receiver? Slim line...
