I don't believe all hand guards are created equal. The ones sold by Galazan are not supposed to harm the finish on barrels and are advertised as such. I believe any damage to the finish caused by a hand guard comes from chemicals in the leather, probably tannic acid. I have used a Galazan hand guard for many years without issue. I had another one many years ago and it did affect the bluing and I gave it away.
