Can the Omega handguard be used without the lower rail in place, as in the case of mounting an M-203?

According to Daniel Defense, the Omega rail is not designed for M203 use. I'm not sure if the 203 will fit or not in a barrel mount configuration, I haven't tried.

Or buy the barrel mounted M203, and get the DD RIS II rail that SOCOM is using with their M4s. That mounts up a 203 very nicely, and still free floats the barrel.

This picture is one from an earlier RIS II prototype, but the mounting method remain the same, as do the 203 attachments.

Personally, I wouldn't use any 2 piece rail system with a launcher.

I would if it were attached to the barrel, but not as a rail mounted variant.
