POLL: Keymod, M-lock, Quadrail or other?

[toolboxluis00200]

but i have all 3 rails

[Mecha_Arms]

I thought about voting Keymod, just to be contrarian, but went with railed.

I think keymod is ok (I've run into a few problems, which has dampened my enthusiasm for it, but for the most part it's been ok), and have been meaning to get an M-Lok rail, just haven't gotten around to it.

So, what are your thoughts?

C'mon Will... are you actually going to buy a rail?

it will be a cold day in hell before I buy another magpul product.

Just curious why? I've had problems from their products before, but they always handled it with VIP style service.

Actually, I am, not for a while yet though. I'll machine an 80% lower first. I've been working up designs for a .300 blackout and a .308 AR 10. I'll probably do the .300 first. Currently digging out of the financial crunch that this year has caused.

Just as a note: Keymod and subsequently M-Lock are both systems that were designed for warehouse shelving. The gun industry picked up on the usefulness of the locking designs for rifle handguards.

I'm curious too. Why? I have a fair amount of Magpul stuff. STR Stock, rifle handguard, pistol grips and 5 P-mags. I do have other mags too and I do like my hexmags. Someone sent me a trigger guard that didn't have the set screw for it. UWone suggested I send Magpul an e-mail, so I did. I e-mailed Magpul and they simply just sent me one. Their customer service is certainly way up there.

While keymod may have the same external shape, the way the nuts interface with the slots, along with the reasoning behind this design choice, is completely different. The chamfered slots and nut center the accessory, plus push the recoil lug against the rear of the slot.

Warehouse shelving is only meant to bear a load in one direction, unlike keymod.

Will,

I see where you're coming from on the appearance of KeyMod to the Keymods you see on shelving, you have no actual idea what you're talking about.

[Sodbuster]

M-lok.

[Cwgibson]

I voted M-LOK, I think the M-LOK QD attachments from Kinetic Development Group will be a game changer.

Their rail certainly looks interesting.
