QD sling mounts not rotation limited?
the mk3 looks like the latest revision of the mk2 but with a rounded profile (edit- maybe narrower like the mk1?). unless theres something that cant be seen (like its much lighter or something), the 3 is a let down for me.
If it's the same OD as the Mk1 but a little lighter and cheaper and just as effective then I don't have a clue what you wanted. If you're throwing a single rail section on, having the steel inserts on the whole rail may not make sense right?
Not counting 416, he has 2 different profiles: round/small Mk1 (possibly Mk3) and flat profile of Mk2/Mk4. You have 3 with modular end rails and 1 with fixed, QD support and keymod forthcoming. He is pretty much getting all the options out there, keeping them up to date, and seeing what the market wants/will support. I like it.
I don't think anyone here had any real complaints with the design of the MK1/2 aside from weight. It seems that the deviation of the original design is the issue. IMHO, the separation of MK1/2 from the MK3/4 in design would have made more sense while appealing to a much greater audience.
i dont know if a slight change in profile is enough for me. maybe the mk1 profile feels better in hand than the flat mk2 but a whole new rail designation? its more like another mk2 revision. like another person said above, doesnt this make the mk2 redundant? Of course, im just basing this off of the few pics that have been posted- specs will be more informative (i am curious about the weight).
I guess overall, i was expecting something more. i guess i'll have to wait for the mk5:D
They got rid of the wings so that it fits more uppers right? If so, then it makes sense getting rid of it.

Only difference I can detect.
