Special Sneak Peak - 308 Upper / Rail system soon to be released!

[John Hwang]

Within the next 60 days, we'll see another major manufacturer jumping into the KEY-MOD market. If you don't know what a Keymod system is, here is a quick blurb from Noveske's website

The KeyMod inter-locking rail system is a collaboration between Vltor Weapon Systems and Noveske Rifleworks. Separately, both companies were in development of their own systems, but later realizing that both systems were similar, a standardization of the KeyMod system came to be.

The KeyMod system offers a mounting platform for a variety of (future) accessories and components. The days of the Picatinny Rail (MIL-STD-1913) are numbered. The future of the direct mountable accessory is here and now. The KeyMod self-contained components/mounting hardware index and V-block onto the platform, achieving a secured and accurate hold to the system, while separate lugs take the recoil force off the fasteners. The pass through attachment method eliminates the need for loose screws and backing plates that can easily be lost, or difficult to install. Another advantage of the KeyMod system over the 1913 system is the direct attach eliminates the need for the 1913 system as a "middle Man" thereby reducing weight and accessory off-set from the center of the handguard.


This system will be a combo upper/rail system that will attach together giving it a contiguous top rail. We will release more information when the time comes. Here are a few spy shots. This was a model that was made with a 3D printer.
