    I just put mine on a few hours ago. I used tin snips, a Dremel and a flat head screw driver to remove everything. Mine didn't come with any installation instructions. Maybe they just over looked it and forgot to put them in the box. The delta ring side of it came off pretty quick. The sheet metal piece by the front sight was a pain in the rear to remove, harder then I thought it would be. But everything went well. I'm definitely glad I went with the Centurion C4 Carbine Cutout Rail. The few extra inches are definitely noticeable and worth it to me.

    The installation instructions for the C4 were on the Centurion site. They were a PDF file download. I saved the file so if anyone needs it I'll be glad to email it. The Centurion site is down right now.

    Centurion's web site hasn't opened for me. It says their having problems with it. All the info on their C4 Rail I got pretty much on this site and some pic's on other sites while searching for pic's. Thanks for the offer though.

    The rails generally do not ship with instructions. The download is on the site. I probably have one of the versions with pics if someone needs it.

    After installing the MI Gen 2... I honestly prefer the Troy..as it has the lock up screws..
    The MI with my vertical grip... I can feel the bottom piece move back..when I get a good solid grip on the grip..

    I may end up looking for another CASV-el... and just stop flipping parts..

    I added a Troy Charlie Battlerail today to one of my rifles. I like it. It really locks up tight and solid.

    Fuzzy.. that's pretty slick..why did you stick with the front sight post?
    I can't seem to want to give mine up... guess u can say I'm a traditionalist.. I like the look of it.

    If it ain't broke why fix it. I dont think there is a better or stronger front site than the one on it.

    The Troy is great IMHO.

    Between Troy and MI, I have more experience with MI, so I would vote for MI.
