    Rail recommendation

    Hi all,

    Looking for a light weight m-lok rail that fits on a standard GI barrel nut. Last time I looked the centurion was the only option. Does anyone else make one?

    ETA: I do NOT have a FBS on this rifle.

    Centurion C4 mlock would be my first choice.

    Many of the Troy rails use standard barrel nut. I believe the Alpha line

    Midwest also has a 2 piece option

    Fortis Night rails as well. Rainier has an oem from tehm that uses too i think

    That is all i can think of right now

    I used Troy Alpha and Samson Evolution rails a few years back when I wasn't equipped to mess around swapping barrel nuts. They're ok but if I was doing it again now I'd get a Centurion rail.

    The new MLOK which Centurion Arms makes, is a great rail from my limited experiences of a handful of them over the last few months.

    It’s from Fortis Mfg, pretty crazy and locks up super tight.

    Check out the Troy Socc rail. It's like the old alpha, but tapers right after the barrel nut and is super slim.

    Check out the Daniel Defense Omega mlok handguards. They have a 7.0" and 9.0" version (I'm guessing you have an A2 fsb)

    My brother has the original quad rail Omega, and it's great! Free floated and very secure fit too.

    I liked the SOCC.
