So I guess SOCOM said we'll buy every non-FSP RIS II that you can finish with FDE Cerakote that you don't sell as an upper or a complete rifle... we ird.
    The RIS II rails are not cerakoted. They are anodized flat dark earth.

    Again, Joe cleared it up in post #9. Same story with DD lowers, not available from DD since they commit them to rifle builds.

    edit:self-regulation of snarky comment.

    Whatever, I'll be that guy. I dig DD's fde annoidization and wish they would do the whole rifle. Considering M4C has threads on which stock matches which grip and do those match the rail covers while manipulating the picture in photoshop, this is hardly the same thing.

    I wish everyone would do the fde annodization as a base color - we could rattle can or not from there....but then again, like the SCAR, people would complain about non matching colors.

    So the official word is that they won't be available this year due to contracts. Didn't say they will never be available again. Would it be wrong to assume that means they will back on the market at some point after the contract is filled?

    Edited to add: I guess if they are still unavailable when the time comes for me to buy a rail for the SBR I'm working on I'll just totally change it up and buy a tan Geissele instead.

    Seriously, if you're choosing a rail based on what color it is, you're doing it wrong.

    Was not pertinent to the discussion so I removed it.
