    The Centurion Arms rail on my Colt Trooper is my favorite, it is slim, lightweight, and is a pleasure to use. My original KMR runs a close second.

    KMR is certainly a good one as well.

    Those Centurian Arms rails really look nice, sometimes I think we forget there are different rail options out there aside from Geissele and BCM. Thank you for posting Stickman.

    OP,

    Geissele Mk14 is what you seek. Here is my 14.5" SOCOM barrel w/ Surefire flash hider.

    I only have a sample size of one BUT, I just got a BCM 13" MCMR on a 16" ELW BCM upper and I absolutely love this thing. Keep in mind all my others are quad rails so take it for what it's worth. I can't see how anyone wouldn't be happy with the MCMR.

    Geissele MK13/14 would be my choice especially if using a PEQ. The barrel nut is very long and robust- more so than the KMR. I own both along with a 11” NSR which is sturdy but needs to be timed if that’s an issue. I have no experience with Centurion rails but they certainly look nice.

    This for me. But, I also like the ALG.

    This is the way I'd go. I am not a fan of metal handguards because they are hot in the summer and cold in the winter and adding plastic covers increases weight and girth. But I got the chance to handle a Colt CCU with the covers installed and the setup was light with a surprisingly small cross section that's comfortable in my hands. Of all the aluminum handguards I've tried, this is the only setup I like enough to buy. In fact, I'm waiting impatiently for the group buy for the Centurion handguard to go through that Stick is so graciously sponsoring for us.
