Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Need help...
I am looking for a specific kind of free floating handguard... I need it to be at least 10 inches long, hopefully 12, and have no vents cut into it. Basically the cheapest handguard on the market (or at least what I think would be the cheapest...). Little to no vent holes or cuts would be best, oh, and a quad picatinny rail system. Do any of you know of anything like that?

A few companies make plain round free float handguards, usually knurled. But quad rails aren't going to be cheap...
And I've yet to see a quad rail system that wasn't cut up to lighten it.
The hogue tubes come to mind but don't have rail. I'm sure you could drill and install some though.

You can get a rifle length, plain (except small flutes) Model 1 aluminum free float tube from Midway for $35. As mentioned, then you could clock, drill, and screw rails onto it where you wanted.
