Most likely legit. Primary Arms is an authorized dealer of ours and some of our RIS II assemblies ship with ladders rather than panels.

Also noticed on the box the pic has a FDE pic of the rail...but its a blk ris II Also..the two little check boxes for what color is in the box was check FDE, but small white tape was placed over that little box, then the blk was checked off. Is there a tell tail sign it's 100% real? And thank you very much for your help. |

Post some pics and I can confirm if it's the real thing. However, I seriously doubt PA is selling knock off DD Rails.

I should point out that Magpul-style ladder rail covers used to be standard on all DD quad rails (and rifles/URGs with quad rails) up until early-2015 or so, when the "snakeskin" rail covers were first introduced.
Joe, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the ladders also come standard with all of the RIS II rails that DD sold to SOCOM? I always figured that's why they're so common in the pics I've seen of Block II rifles being used downrange. |

Earlier commercially packaged rails came with 3 Ergo ladder covers. Black for Black. FDE for FDE. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By tooly: Do the new rails come with a NSN #? If you have a black RIS II (which you implied in an earlier post), that version never came with an NSN, because it's never been issued by SOCOM. Only the FDE RIS II rails will have an NSN, because they're the only versions that ever entered the military's supply chains. I used to own a factory black MK18 URG (which I purchased directly from Daniel Defense's web site), and mine didn't have the NSN. Whereas my factory M4A1 with an FDE RIS II (which I still own) does have an NSN. |
