Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Excellent build quality
Cons:	None

In the eyes of most MP5 owners, nothing completes the look or functionality more so than the tactical handguard and taclight.

I particulary like it because of the flow of the grip into the torch. It isnt fussy and it avoids unnecessary edges for things to snag on. The pressure switch comes to the fingers easily and the Guarder unit works excellently every time, with no hessitation from the switch. Some switches have poor contacts and are hard to operate easily.

The handguard is an FRP construction and is a lot stronger than that of the offerings by other manufacturers. This handguard will not break easily and can be folded into itself without the centre seam spliting as is easily done on others. It has surface texture to match that of the surefire offering and feels great in the hand. The wiring inside is fine although could be a bit shorter and neater.

The torch again is the closest match on the market for the surefire offering although I'm sure the are both interchangable. It is great in its operation and if needed can be changed between the 6P and 9P bulbs. The bezel rotates to adjust beam intensity sufficiently as well. The torch unit is sealed with O-rings as well incase it takes a swim or if you like using it underwater. As with other similar torches it runs on 2 x CR123a batteries.

The handguard is a nice snug fit on the ICS MP5 with no undue movement or play. For me it was a necessary purchase for CQB use and has been used to great affect. One of my most useful purchases!
