Description
The Geissele Automatics SMR MK8 Super Modular Rail (SMR MK8) is a free-float handguard designed to provide a rigid, modular platform for AR-pattern rifles. It employs Magpul’s M-LOK interface to support a wide range of accessories while minimizing weight. Extensive venting in the lower 45-degree quadrants improves heat dissipation and reduces overall mass. The rail is built from machined aluminum and is finished in a black anodized coating.
Key Specifications

Purpose-built for builders and shooters who prioritize a rigid, adaptable free-float platform, the SMR MK8 delivers broad accessory compatibility and a lightweight, vented profile that helps manage heat. Its machined construction and extended barrel-nut interface improve repeatability and alignment across assembly cycles, making it a solid choice for AR-platform projects that demand modularity and durable performance.
