    Thanks. I sent him a message today asking him that and I'll post up his response when I get it back. I'm personally thinking he's not going to want to touch the FSP if he doesn't need to. Hopefully his clarification will help as he joked earlier that it seems everyone has a different recommendation from each other.

    I also need to double check on the gas system as his may be a carbine. I may have linked the wrong one from an old email. It's the same otherwise.... besides the gas system potentially.

    for under $200 I'd take a look at primary Arms, they have the troy mid length battle rail with front sight cut out. it was the only option when I looked for my mid length and it's worked well

    I like a ffs and have a Daniel Defense 9.5 lite rail on may 11.5

    No kidding! If it is a carbine there are tons of great options obviously and everyone clearly has a different opinion. I just wouldn't go for the $25.99 eBay ones. A buddy has one and while it works, it's quite heavy.

    Some updated info I still need to check out the gas system. My dad is going to look for his order email or I'll just double check the upper tonight when I stop by.

    I did get a chance to ask him some questions about what he's looking for.
    1. More comfortable to shoot with.
    2. Doesn't want to touch the FSP or really futz around with a new gas system.
    3. Be able to still use and possibly cowitness his Bushnell green or red dot (can't remember the color off hand).

    The Daniel Defense RIS II series the is rail all others are judged against. For those that cry its not keymod, I've also got BCM KMR rails and while they are light, my next purchases will be back to DD's RIS II series for a number of reasons. For true ruggedness,they can't be beat. Brownells has the RIS II FSP on sale right now for $199. Regularly $379.

    If he likes his front sight, he can keep his front sight: magpul hand guards.

    Alg does make an excellent rail though.
