Does anyone have any experience with these or seen them in person? I am considering one of the 14" versions for my SPR build. The machined-in rail section up front would be sweet for bipod attachment. Thoughts, comments?

This is the 13" Keymod...the one I'd get is the 14" M-LOK.

I'm interested as well. Would like to try one out on a future 300 build

It seems like a no-brainer purchase. But they are based in my state--about an hour away--so I am subject to sales tax (gay). The rails look phenomenal, too. Weight is about where I need it to be on my build, too.

I have a 13" Solo Lite Keymod from SLR. It is a very nice rail. Finish is awesome and it has the type of barrel nut that does not have to be timed. I would say go for it. I also bought it for an SPR build. I can post some iPhone pics if anyone is interested. There is also a very long thread on ARFCOM, under AR-15, then new products. There are plenty of pictures there as well.

I have a SLR Rifleworks 15" Ultra Lite M-LOK handguard on my 16" build. I think that they are an excellent option. The included barrel nut doesn't require indexing, locks up tight, is light and it looks great (it doesn't need covers to hide ugliness like other systems).

Magpul is releasing a bunch of direct attach M-LOK gear this year. Just today they released a vertical grip, offset light mount, bipod mount and anti-rotation QD sling mount. At some point this year a handstop and AFG are coming.

I'm going to buy the offset light mount and a Streamlight TLR-1 HL once they are available at retailers.

I've got two SLRs so far. A 7" Solo Ultra Lite and 12" Solo Lite. I'll be replacing the majority of my handguards with these. Check out their charging handle too. It's a really slick design.

They've got .308 and GII rails coming out soon as well.

I have been looking at them and we are thinking about picking one up for the pistol build. Might even pick one up for my AR 7.62x39 build as well.

I've decided to buy two 14" versions, one Solo and one Solo Lite. The Solo will go on the SPR build and the Lite will go on my duty rifle.

I can't speak for the rails, but I can on their service. I have 2 of the DA7 adjustable gas blocks, and one locked up on me- would not adjust at all. I contacted SLR, and I had a new gas block in a few days, and they 'upgraded' me to the new design instead of replacing with the exact same one.
