Eff me that's SEXY!!..... well, except for some piece of plastic that snuck in there. What's up with that bro? 
Sexy was a form of respect - and the person in question I was paying that respect too, is someone who understood that meaning as we have had other conversations and one I would consider friend.JD I respect you as a man who can banish me at your whim, but you have trodden upon on of my sorest corns. I can not abide people (especially those I respect) referring to firearms as sexy. This seems to me to be mildly perverse and definitely reinforces the rhetoric of the brain-dead opposition who say all firearms enthusiasts are compensating for sexual inadequacies. Not trying to start a war here, but this is one of my major peeves.
Hey, thanks dragunovsks. Those are Magpul XTM modular rail panel covers, they are made up of two pieces that snap together top and bottom. You can get them in all the regular Mapgul designer colorsNice rifle slowryde45, I like the contrast in colors on the handguard. I've never seen a handguard like that before. I like the XD too, although I'm partial to the 1911 platform...SHHH, don't tell JD I said that!![]()
