Daniel Defense Lite Rail 14.0 (14")

I tried to post a WTB ad but the system won't let me. Maybe I'm too new here? Anyway, if anyone has one that wants to part with it please let me know. They are backordered & I was told recently to check back next year. Thanks!

You need 30 posts before you can post in the Member Sales area. And I don't think they make a 14" Lite rail. They do make a 12" though.

Good luck! And keep posting and you'll be to 30 in no time.

Thanks for the info! They do make a 14" exclusively for Ranier Arms but they as well as D.D. are out.

They make a 14", they will make them if you order 50 or more units.

I got mine directly from DD through the FFL I work for about 4 months ago.

With out the barrel:

Crap! I guess I'll just have to buy 49 more AR's so I have a place to put the other 49 rails!

Here is a picture of the DD 14.0 Lite rail on my 18" barreled weapon. I've not heard when they are slated for a return date, but hopefully it won't be too long.

I called and asked DD about these about 6-8 weeks ago or so. They told me to talk to Rainier. So I guess it was a special run item for Rainier, at least originally.

I picked one up from Rainier a couple of months ago and they only had a couple more in stock at the time. They were all the newer design that fit over the DD low profile gasblock.

The DD 14.0 Lite rail was an idea of mine awhile back, John from Rainier Arms agreed with the concept and made it happen with DD. I'm sure there are plenty of other people who had a similar idea.

The item missing from this build would be a Vltor MUR, and thats because I was unwilling to disassemble one of my other builds that my MUR is being used on currently. The mount has since been updated with an ADM Recon mount.

Your rifle looks badazz stickman! I spoke with Rainier a month ago & asked to be put on a waiting list. They had no idea when they'll be available. I called D.D. directly & they told me to check back around the 1st of the year. I guess I'll hold out unless I can convince Stick or Jeep to sell me theirs!
