    Any idea of the weight of these rails as compared to a a Larue in an 11"? I looked on the VTAC sight and didn't see weights.

    Man, I am liking this more and more. I think this might have to be my next rail.
    Grant, if you are listening, do you have these in stock?

    Let us know how you like this setup.

    Good looking rail Jeff. I'll probably install one on my 16" LMT. What length will work best with a 16" barrel and what gas blocks fit under it?

    Very nice!! How is its weight compared to the original JP Enterprises version?

    Thanks for sharing.

    Exact question I was going to ask.

    Guys, all these are is the new Troy Extreme rails with a V-tac logo on them and slots instead of holes, much like the old ones were JP tubes with the V-tac logo and a couple of minor tweaks. I have not found the weights either and am still waiting for Troy to get back to me. Guess I should ping them again.

    Bear in mind that of course they are going to weigh less, they also offer less in terms of mounting locations and heat protection. On the one hand, yes it's nice to be able to mount rail sections where you want/need them and only in that spot, but those rail sections and the covers most of us put on them do a lot to protect our hands from the heat generated by the barrel.

    I'd like to try one of the 9.0 versions, but I'm apprehensive at best.

    Rob_S: I believe Troy keeps their handguards' weight as a highly confidential trade secret. Bring a postage scale to the next SHOT show . I noted the weight of my 11" VTAC TRX above

    I suspect if Kyle Lamb put his blessing on this, it works. Most of those guys shoot with gloves anyway.

    Is that with or without the nut?
