The new Aimpro Tri-Rail

I received the new rail for the 930 SPX from Mike Shain at Aimpro today. Here are some pics.


The rail arrived in a sealed plastic sleeve, wrapped in shipping foam in a heavy cardboard box.


The package includes the rail assembly and 12 soft rail ladder covers.

Welcome to Weapon Evolution board Tater. I don't know that Mike will be making them for other shotgun brands: he's the LE/.mil repair guy for OFM.

Here are some pics of the "tail" of the Aimpro Tri-Rail unit and the OEM forearm.

There's a technical "feature" that I was wondering about that Mike gave me a little info on that I'll be posting about once I get a chance to check it. If you notice in the interior pic there are some cuts at the front in the collar or plug. Those are gas bleed off chambers. Mike advised that they've actually seen some improvement in shotguns that don't cycle low power loads with the rail installed. If it works as I've been informed, there will be a lot of people that could take advantage of not just having a railed forearm but also a more reliable shotgun.
