    Is the new RIS II M4A1 FSP on the DD website? I could not find it.

    This is the DD rail that I'm interesting in buying - in black;

    No, thats the original submittal for the SOPMOD RIS II trials, which is the same one in the above pictures but coated FDE. The newer one should have the same method of attachment between the upper and lower rails as the current RIS II family, which negates the larger fatheaded screw.


    Eric- As always let me know if I misunderstood something, either that or call me up and yell at me.

    So the new version has a continuous rail on the bottom? Or does it have cut-outs for the FSB on both like the original submission? From your pictures it looks like it only has the top cut-out.

    Eric or Stick,

    Can we get a picture of the current version of the RIS II M4A1 FSP? I want to put something like this on a 12.5" barrel - right now I think my best bet is a Lite 9.5 FSP model - I will have enough barrel exposed to mount most suppressors then...

    Spooky

    Here are some pics. If you're wanting a 12.5" barrel, the GL/SSC version of the RIS II was made for that application. However, it's not compatible with the standard FSB. The M4A1 FSP wouldn't be a good choice for the 12.5". The 9.5 FSP Lite Rail would be your best bet.

    Any pics of a 10" lite rail on a 14.5" and/or 16" M4? I am strongly considering one of these on my LMT.

    Is this particular rail available yet? Will the price be similar to the M4A1 RIS II?

    Thanks,

    Here's the 9.5" Mk18 RIS rail on a 12.5" (cutdown 14.5" bbl).
