Not sure why they wouldn't go with DDC. |

Seems like Geissele DDC has much more variation than DD FDE. Anyone want to trade an EXPS3-0 for a COMPM4 plus cash or M620U? |

Though it does look cool having all that stuff bolted onto the front end of a very short rifle, I may look into getting an Airsoft clone just for pics (lol, like my fake suppresors). Anyway, I may or may not have taken the first step down a very dark path and I pray my wife never finds out, or that I come to my senses and start doing the math on how much this could possibly cost me (even without a real PEQ 15). https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gG7uPXhQ6vs/WZOBiIyT5-I/AAAAAAAApUw/CToSHQg_QNcsOkTxrtECtOYdX8qgRJbJQCKgBGAs/s1600/P8141228.JPG |

I had another rail on there for a while that was even numbers, and that is the one in the first pic of my post Still have lots to learn about this build. |

Funny, I saw many issued M4's with that tab sticking out. It is sticking out because someone did not know how to install the rail correctly. I had to fix my own issued M4 because mine had the same problem. Usually that is an armorer job but because I had installed my own on my personal M4gery. That tab tucks under the HG retainer cap.
