Fortis Manufacturing 556 SWITCH Rail
Fortis Manufacturing introduces the SWITCH Rail for the AR15 Platform. The Rails will initially be available on Revolvr for $215. Checkout Fortis Manufacturing for updates and Revolvr to purchase one of the initial runs.
Description:
Fortis SWITCH™ is an extremely lightweight, yet robust free float rail system designed for the 556 platform. When designing the SWITCH™, we wanted a handguard that was easy to install, but also be able to quickly change rails for a variety of mission or competition specific setups. The rail features a brand new patent pending locking mechanism that allows tool-less removal of the rail. The rail design not only looks great, but is very functional in your hand. The piece adds minimal weight to the rifle and you won't be disappointed!

I personally never saw a need to remove the rail once I installed one but it is a good looking rail.

Are there any other lengths planned?
Owning a handgun doesn't make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.

The SWITCH Rail for now will only be offered in 12" and then 15"
The new REV Gen2 will be offered in all lengths, but will lose the bottom rail.

There are times I tend to really dislike you UW, this is one of those times... Looks great! I need one to match my 308 switch
