    Mlok, but with 1913 at the 12:00 position for mounting anything that needs to return to zero.

    I’ve been running a KeyMod upper for a few years.
    More adapters are available for it as KeyMod has been around longer.
    I am switching to MLOK, while adapters are more of a pain to install, the hardware is more durable & rick solid once installed.

    I still love the old school quad rails though......

    I never invested in Keymod, nor had any real interest in it. I was taking a "wait and see" approach and was quite comfortable with the established MIL-STD-1913 system. I'm on the MLOK bandwagon though.

    I was into the KeyMod NSR when it was pretty much the only skinny rail on the market but in the last couple years I have migrated toward M-LOK. I do find the M-LOK to be more aesthetically pleasing however, I was never bothered by the negative comments about KeyMod looking like a Gorilla Rack or whatever.... IMO they're all good. By the way, I've never had a KeyMod accessory come loose or fall off as some have reported. When installed properly they are good to go with the caveat that M-LOK has tested to be more robust than KeyMod.

    I have one Keymod and like it, but since the Army and Marines are going M-Lok going forward I will also transition that way.

    I was late to making the switch from the quad rail. When I started converting I went M-Lok because it looked better to me. Figured they had better backing and would slowly win the race, looking like that has turned out true. I also never thought mounting stuff was that difficult either. I've never had an issue mounting or running anything. Only a couple of classes ran with my junk so they haven't seen much action...

    I have both. I like Keymod better just for the ease of mounting accessories. I like running an afg right under the gas block on carbine length guns. Keymod mounts just fine but I had to shorten the screws to make M-lok work because they were touching the gas block.
