A handguard for mounting on a firearm with a housing axis, including: a housing with a slit and with a clamping device including a lever with a center element which lies in a normal plane to the housing axis in a through-opening. It has a recess in its central region, a thread at one end, a lever arm at the other end, and a nut with an internal thread. According to the invention, the center element has a conical nut section. In the assembled state, a nut is screwed onto the thread and thus the center element is arranged in an annular groove of the travelling nut so as to make contact with the center element.
