Help! Which rail for my new SBR?

[Cameron]

I need a little assistance, I have a couple of 16" rifles that I have the Daniel Defense 12" Lite rails on:





and I have just purchased an LMT 10.5" upper for my new SBR.

I am trying to find the longest rail possible (I will be milling off the front sight post, and using a flip up on the rail), that will still allow me to add a Noveske KX3 or a suppressor.

I am thinking about the Daniel Defense 9.0 Lite rail as I really like the 12 rails above, but it still leaves 1.5" of barrel, and I thought I had found the perfect rail in the Daniel Defense MK18 RIS II but it doesn't look like they make the damn thing in black and I really was hoping for an all black rifle.

I saw Robb's thread swapped rails on my 10.5" SBR and the MK18 RIS II would be perfect if it was black.... is the longest I can get in black the 9" lite rail?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Cameron
