It's a Geissele MK1 15" prototype. Nice build above

It fits best in the SPR role I've found

You get a “prototype” and it’s a Geissele rail. Some unnamed civilian companies also gave me prototypes when I was in the Army, but they were cardboard cutouts of imaginary or still on the drawing board satcom radios.

Glad to see “prototypes” have turned the corner into something actually usable and FUN.

Very nice build. Very nice!

Thanks for the kind words brother. While these were the first Geissele AR-15 rails, they were largely based off of Bill's DoD contract HK 416 SMR rails. I think that's the reason these proto MK1s were GTG from day one. The only critique I have of them, and Geissele shortly changed it, are the protruding barrel nut screw heads, and no built in QD sockets. Once they inlayed the screw heads like they do on a MRP chassis....the MK1 was perfected in my book. I just wish they wouldn't have added the "pear" cut outs on the production models.

With it being Geissele's first AR-15 rail, and the fact it was also their most complicated, and costly rail to produce....most folks never bought one, and they weren't made all that long. It was also released during the height of the lightweight craze which hurt it. I think it was the MK4 that lit the Geissele fire that roars today. If Geissele would bring back the MK1, it would see a totally different response imho.

These are protos of Geissele's first three rail models....bottom to top: MK2/MK1/MK4. You can see Geissele's evolution to more LW rails (MK4 which spawned the new models) VS. uber bombproof rails (MK1 & MK2 models).



Here is a 13" model that shows the protruding barrel screws that later were inlayed:
