Now, im running an 11 inch ral. There is a possibility that the longer rails do exhibit some flex but ALL longer rails do to some degree.
Interesting. The one I installed and then removed for a customer had all kinds of flex/shift. Installed as tight as I could get it without ripping the heli-coils out of the rail if I applied pressure to the muzzle end of the rail I could push it half way to the barrel side to side laterally not up and down. It wouldn't flex back and would stay in that position. I think it needs to go back to the drawing board.
