    The rail becomes one of the largest identifiers of the clone. Guys are willing to use a 16" instead of pinning a 14.5" barrel, or using a different light, but the rail is the meat and potatoes. You can't change the rail and call it a clone, at least not without getting laughed at and lectured by the internet people who you will never meet.

    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    I’ve met quite a few people off of here! TXBK is a very good friend of mine!

    I agree on all counts. I thought the RIS II was unobtainable, though- it looks like SKD has them in stock, or am I kissing something- are there different models, or was it the FDE everyone was chasing?

    FDE is what's issued and what you would want for a clone. Daniel Defense hasn't sold the rail separately for a few years now. You can either pick one up from an individual selling theirs (and they seem to be plentiful these days) or buy a complete Daniel Defense upper.

    I’ve seen them for sale recently, maybe they brought them back as a separate item.

    Not that I have a dog in this fight, but I saw a couple RIS II FSP rails in the EE a day ago, you may want to start your search there.

    I believe it was one of the Airborne units which was using black, simply because they were what was available when they needed them.

    OK. What is the correct order of march here? I'm buying a BCM 14.5 upper. Can I send that to ADCO complete and have them pin and weld the trifecta on there, or will that interfere with me installing the RIS II?
    When you're done saying what you're saying, stop saying it.

    You could pick up one of these:

    It has the 14.5 barrel, though the muzzle decide is not clone-correct.

    I appreciate the effort, however that does not clone the rifle in the pictures.
