I had to use a vice, a chain and a truck to pull the KAC rail cover off!
Yesterday when I tried to slide on a Magpul rail with the recessed pressure switch it was the same thing. There were plastic shavings all over the place when the gorilla and I finally muscled the rail cover off.
Then it finally occured to me that something was awry with these DD Omega rails.
The pic below is a comparison of the "height" of the DD's rail to the KAC Ras.
Look at the middle of the picture where the rails from each rifle are positioned next to one another.
The KAC's are so much taller above the handguard cap, which makes sliding rail covers on and off a breeze.
I was going to call DD about this but I think that is just how they are made.
Can anyone comment on this?
Thanks
I would call Jay or John at DD. I know both of these guys enough to say that they will be more than happy to answer any questions that you might have regarding their products and do everything in their power to to help , with out making you feel embarrassed or like a newbie.
