I have used the Strike Industries Mega Fin for 2 range sessions since installation and I have nothing but good things to say about it. The "Mega Fins" inside near the receiver act as heat syncs and help dissipate the heat from firing. (It's very difficult to get a picture once installed)
The heptagonal shape coupled with the raised lines that run parallel to the rail make for a solid gripping surface as well as great looks. 
The mounting is simple and straight forward. Once the barrel nut is indexed properly (refer to Travis' post) it mounts with ease. The indexing slot on the top rail actually slides on either side of the upper receivers rail for a perfect and easy index. Since the fins are at the rear of the hand guard, you have to install the gas block and gas tube after it is mounted. 
There are a TON of places you can mount the Strike Industries accessory rails thanks to the keymod system, including on a 45 degree angle on both left and right sides as well as top and bottom. No more after market 45 rails! 
(Above: Magpul AFG mounted, soon I will have a light on a 45)
With me being 6'3" and a wingspan of nearly 7 feet, I can really appreciate the 15" hand guard.
If you are a person that likes a faux suppressor barrel shroud/shoulder thing that goes up, this hand guard will not accommodate such accessories that are larger than the inside diameter of the rail at 1 3/8". Also be aware that some bull barrels might not fit due to the mega fins.
