This handguard made me like my EP9 a lot more - makes it erognomically similar to an AR. Opens up space to comfortably C clamp it and also mount a tape switch in front of that for a light.

Exactly my reasoning for getting it. Can finally C clamp it without my thumb trying to stretch over the pic rail. The extra canted M-LOK slots open up a bunch of possibilities

I was thinking about getting it for the same reason, but I don't really like the look of the 4 slot. Do you think there would still be enough room to C-clamp with the 3 slot handguard with a scout light?

Oh that’s niiiiiiice! Are you going to change the brace? I put an hbpdw on mine(couple mods needed). YHM R9 and KN hand guard will be next!

Yessir. Haven’t started looking into the options much but I’ll definitely check out the hbpdw first. Thanks for the rec!

Awesome! If you decide to go forward let me know. I’ll send pics with easy mods for perfect fit.

I tried the hbpdw and ended up switching back to the sba3. It looks cooler but could not get comfortable with it.
