I have 2 midlengths. One has a 14.5" Govt. profile, A2ext., and Troy MRF and the other has a 14.7" pencil barrel, Troy TRX rail and Battlecomp. There is right at 1lb. difference between the 2. Even so the lightweight, pencil barreled upper with Battlecomp is much easier to control.

From my perspective and being a recent AR owner I never saw the appeal for a quad rail for a civilian user when considering cost vs. various other factors. It was always the last upgrade I ever wanted to do to my gun, and once the MOE hand guard came out I realized I made the right choice in never buying one.
When I was young i was part of a budding sport that was going through major technological developments, and I was sponsored. I watched things go way extreme in application before being pulled back into a kind of "form follows function" role. The first time I laid eyes on a quad rail I thought: "That thing looks way cool :drool:, but it's not practical at all." Haven't thought about one since.

I put IR lasers on every rifle I own, and an MOE or VTAC with a rail attached just doesn't cut it for reliability and precision.
Plus, the VTAC and TRX look just straight up gay.

Way to post an opinion backed by absolutely no factual information or data. Thanks for the contribution!
Could you please elaborate in regards to WHY these rails arent good enough for you and you've developed a homophobic fear of an inanimate cylindrical object? Sounds like someones got a problem....
To date i havent read of anyone having any issues with the rails holding zero. Nor have i read about anyone saying these rails flex more than their competition due to the lighter weight.
