Fortis Manufacturing engineered the Night Rail for minimal weight without sacrificing strength or durability. Consequently, your rifle remains fast and maneuverable whether in the field or at the range. Indeed, the precision machining ensures every shot performs consistently.

M-LOK Modularity and Accessory Mounting

M-LOK slot compatibility gives you unlimited mounting options for lights, grips, slings, and tactical gear. Therefore, you customize your setup exactly where you need it without permanent modifications. Moreover, the Night Rail accepts all standard M-LOK accessories available today.

The 12-inch length provides sufficient rail real estate for sporting and competition use. Additionally, it clears most muzzle devices while offering ample space for your accessories. This length suits hunters, tactical operators, and competition shooters equally well.

Free-Float Design for Superior Accuracy

Free-float construction means the barrel never touches the handguard, maximizing accuracy potential. As a result, barrel harmonics remain unaffected and shot-to-shot consistency improves downrange. Furthermore, the black finish provides a clean, professional appearance on any modern rifle build.

The Fortis Night Rail works perfectly for home defense builds, range guns, or precision competition platforms. Whether you’re upgrading an existing rifle or starting fresh, this handguard elevates your build quality immediately.
