Other than the Alpha 13" are there any other rail systems with a built in front sight?

KAC URX II & III rails.

Thank you for the response. Sorry I didn't word that correctly from the start. What I meant to ask was are there any tubular rails like the Alpha out there?

Not with a built in front sight, that I know of.

Let me add this; I really like the Troy and Viking Tactics rails. 3/6 of my AR's wear them. However I was not impressed with the integral front site on the Troy rail. It was not very stable or rigid in my opinion. This was a sample of one but I very much prefer the Troy front site or even the MBUS to the integral Troy site.

You'd think the Troy rail's integral front sight would be as good as the Troy removable front sight, lol.

I think that I am going with a fixed up front at this point so I can add a light at the end of the rail.

Fixed FSB?

DD rail mount front sight from the EE. I am going with the Alpha rail without the front sight.

Another question, better to go with the 11" or 13" rail on a mid length?

Personal preference..

Do you like to get your hand way out there? 13" would be better. 11" would be a bit lighter.

I have carbine's with MOE's on both. This will be my first rail gun. Just wondering if the extra 2" will make that much difference.
