Anyone use these yet? They look nice and the price is right. How easy are they to install? I know Geissele is associated with the company, how do these compare to the Geissele rails?

BCM Keymod is on the way

 

Looking to retrofit an old rifle with a tube, for ~ $150 and in grey I am digging these.

Looking at these also as a lower cost alternative tubes for my SPR project..barrel nut looks a little funky though

I think that's a can of Cambells soup, not a barrel nut.

I just don't understand that barrel nut. Why?

lack of fixed top rail is a deal breaker for me..

gray is the new FDE. According to shot show attendees there will be a lot of gray out there soon.

Why? What do you out in there?

Good! In my experience grey (or any color - FDE, OD, FG, etc...) is a significantly better choice than "target indicator black" in all environments and lighting conditions, and a better choice than FDE, OD, or FG in urban surroundings and at night.

 

But the real reason that grey is getting popular probably has nothing to do with how well it works and more with how the SEALs are now issuing gear in a new color called "Mass Gray" and all the fanboys out there.

Grey is in.

Why? What do you out in there?

Do you ever really use it or do you just like to have it

I would use it if my red dot was down... 

That's not really what I asked but I get it... You like to have it in case it goes down. My point was its very unlikely that it would go down (especially if you believe the aimpoint fanboys about its ruggedness). But its a personal preference.

i believe in the AImpoint product... but anything can happen.. the glass can shatter (even though you can use the tube itself with no dot for rapid center mass shots inside 25)... at least if the worst possible situation occurs I still have a backup.. 

Very simple rule I learned when I trained on the water. Don't just depend on technology, (gps, etc), because when it breaks, you better know/have the old style navigation tools, (compass, sextant, etc), or you are screwed. I feel the same about optics vs sights. Ya just never know!

Mount it on the barrel.

Something recently I saw on their site. MP does not recommend putting their plastic sights on gas blocks or barrels because they could melt of twist from the heat.

No one recommends that. So mount a metal sight on a metal barrel.

Yea, but you'd be surprised how many I see....
