I doubt optics planet actually has them in stock, when I checked the availability it gave me 29-38 days. I've ordered things from them with much shorter estimates that took months longer.
In stock and ready to ship from Brownells today

I bought one for $150 shipped, and for the money it isn't bad. It's currently installed on my carbine build, and for the most part I like it because it locks up very solid, and it free floats the barrel. The downside is that it is somewhat crowded for rail space even for a carbine rail, and it limits the placement of your optics. If you want to mount a Comp M3, or PRO in a forward position you will need a Larue ($$) mount for a lower 1/3 witness.

Don't get me wrong, I like it. I just wanted to provide the best answer to his question that I could. My only gripe is that the top rail doesn't have as much space as I would like, so I have to mount my tape switch on the port side instead of the top. Other than that I like it.
OP, if you decide to go with the forend you mentioned, might as well get it from KAC directly. Includes four rail panels and the vertical grip.

I like mine....what a steal at $150 with foregrip and panels. I just used the Aimpoint mount without spacer and it works fine even in front of a 3xmag.
Our unit was short on RAS rails when we deployed to Iraq for our second rotation (05-06), so I ordered a RAS II for my carbine. Ran an ACOG behind the hump. Overall the rail was GTG. I wish I had kept it, but sold it a few years ago.

In case anyone wanted to know, this rail works with the Sionics medium contour 11.5 barrel. Had no issues with the install.

Had one 10+ years ago, worked for the purpose at the time.
Mounted a S&B Short Dot on it with Sako picatinny rings.
