BCM KMR M-LOK late 2017

[BoringGuy45]

I need a rail RIGHT NOW! And a couple more soon (very soon, I hope -wishful thinking for BATFE). That's why I wanted a specific date from BCM. I hoped to get a definite month, like September, or maybe "certainly before the end of the year." I would wait a month, or two, for a quality product. As someone just said, I don't want to buy an inferior product, only to spend more money and replace it a short time later. Been there, done that.
The problem I have with BCM is not honesty (which I appreciate, and which is one of the reasons for making them my first choice), it is the complete lack of details. I can take that cryptic sentence "We have no information for public release as of this date" to mean that it will never happen. Or will it? We're getting close to "late 2017", and I expected a more concrete date. If that's too much to ask, I don't apologize.
What do I do now? How long do I have to wait for BCM to release it? Their answer makes me think of "vaporware"!
As for the alternatives you guys mentioned, they are all good choices. Except none of them come in 7in and 8in, which is what I'm looking for. Apparently, quality short rails have gone the way of the dodo bird. Except for BCM KMR, but only in Key Mod. Hence the desire for the M-Lok version, which checks all the boxes. Except for availability.

BCM has never failed to deliver. They're also a company that wants to do things right rather than right now. Good things come to those who wait.

Idk if this has been mentioned-
I was on their USA shop and saw the new rails in the sidebar, but when you click on them it shows zero results. I think that means they are coming pretty soon if they already have space on the website for them.

Well, if there is room on the website, they are definitely not vaporware. Good to know.
I don't know if I should start a new thread about this: Geissele and KAC are quality. I don't think Noveske sells trash, but haven't heard much about their rails. I've read enough to not trust Midwest handguards, although gen 3 seems to have solved their problems. Does anyone have first-hand experience with V7 and Mega handguards? 2099 aluminum? Titanium nut and bolts under hard use?
Mods, feel free to move this.

I've got a Noveske with the NSR keymod rail, super high quality and light!

Yup looks like they are getting ready. They have an entire MLOK accessory area getting ready to go live. I wonder how to get notifications of when this stuff goes up? It will all sell out in about five minutes.

It will all sell out in about five minutes.

Yep I bet that's true.

Looks like at least one upper is on the website:

That's the way they do it with the new stuff. When it first hits the site it is out of stock. Get on the to be notified list and check your email 30 times a day. That's how I got my original KMR 13 and my KMR 15 ELW enhanced upper from the first run of each.

There is a link in the shop column for the MMR but it goes nowhere. They are getting close. Not that I really care. I am content with KM.

I have been waiting for their VFG's for MLOK for years now. I like the slight canted position and short, stubby grips.
