I also really like Centurion, Larue and Noveske but the price issue applies here as well soo heres my question... can anyone give me some real world experience with any of the following quads:
    Midwest Industries
    Troy Bravo or Battle (own an alpha and still one of my faves)
    Seekins Precision SAR
    Spikes BAR or SAR (good looking rail)
    Radical Firearms
    Ergo Grip Z Rail
    Aero Precision
    Any others that i havent remembered

    Im not worried about whether it is 9 vs 11 oz im primarily intrrested in hearing about hoe they held up under heavy use, and have rock solid mount up. I really like them to have a heluva set of anti rotation "tabs" or whatever. DD and Larue had the best lock from what ive gathered.

    Also, i have a chance at an fsp cutout Midwest rail for just a tad over $100... Is that a good deal on a good fsp rail?

    Thanks all,
    Darrin
    Darrin,


    Why not just list how much your price limit is? That way people can give you suggestions, or point out deals they are aware of?

    Solid rail, no longer made by SWS. However, the same rail is available through SWS if someone was so inclined.

    Ok stick, obviously the smart idea guy here! Lol
    I wouldnt be completely against spending $200-$250 if i could end up with a centurion, noveske, dd or larue but it will take me a month or two to get the amount of disposable income. For something right now i can prolly go to $125ish... Have really been looking at the midwest and troy... Know about deals?

    On a side note, has anyone used the troy sdmr rail? I fant find anything about it asidr feom stuff fron troy

    Regards,
    Darrin

    They discontinued all keymod stuff last year. I like the idea of it because if I'm doing a light I do it on the side and since it's a shorty you can get away with using that spot for a hand stop/grip. Primary arms sent me an email for mlok Troy rails not sure don't remember if they were doing quad too

    Larue:

    Midwest Industries Gen 3:

    With the Larue at $200, it would be an easy choice for me. That said, the MI Gen3 offerings are a completely different animal from their prior efforts; I don’t really think you can go wrong there either if you want to spend a little less.

    I was about to say that as well. Personally I tend to be a LaRue fan boy but BCM quality is second to none. Their quad rail is new but I am sure it is a quality product.
    I am part of that power which eternally wills evil, and eternally works good.

    I was about to ask. If it is for a midlength system with FSP, that Centurion C4 pocket rail is siiiccckkkkk.

    EDIT: saw its for an 11.5", so I'd definitely say BCM or Centurion.
