The DD 12.0 Omega X FSP rails are back in stock at BCM if interested....$179...can't go wrong!
funny, I've known about the sale on this rail since last year, and every time I was set to order it would be out of stock...now that it's in stock again I have the money for it tied up somewhere else! dang!
just ordered my dd omega 12.0 fsp from bravo on sale. As an AR noob im somewhat worried about installation. I ordered the DD lite wrench it said i needed but am wondering if anyone has any experience installing this particular rail?
You will need to make the FH off. Then knock out the pins holding the FSB off as well. Then you need to use a receiver block so you can put it in a vice. Use your USGI barrel wrench /Multi-tool to remove the old barrel nut. Once that is done you can install the new barrel nut. You will need a torque-wrench to set the barrel nut to 50-75 lbs. Then reinstall the FSB and FH.
The Omega X isn't like the Omega which is drop-in.
You can find pictures of how to take the barrel apart on some other sites. Click and then scroll down to: Changing your own AR15 barrel for dummies
Provided I did this correctly I have attached a PDF copy of the installation instructions for the Omega X Rail.
Edit - It appears that I didn't do it correctly....... sorry. If anyone would like it please feel free to shoot me a PM with your email and I'll send it over.

cant believe i didnt know about this sale until now... i just bought one because... dont even need it... cant beat half price![]()
Mine arrived on Thursday and I installed it this afternoon.... This rail is SWEET!!!!!
The thing that really impressed me as that it was nicely packaged, included ladder covers, had full color, well written installation instructions and generally seemed to be built with a level of professionalism that you don't always see from some of the larger manufacturers.
