What I mean is, I'm finding a lot of free floating hand guards with rails that really don't have very much rail on them at all. A lot of what I'm seeing have some cool ventilation design, and just a little picatiny rail space on the fore end of the guard and the top. What is the purpose for this? Not knocking anyone for getting one, but I can't really see why anyone who wants their rifle for practical use would. I personally prefer to have all the rail space I can have just to keep my options open and be abled to mount my attachments where they are most comfortable for my use, rather than having a small section to mount it to that may not be as comfortable as it could be. The rails I'm speaking of are like these:
