I'm looking for a mid-length quad rail and need your guy's opinions.
Here are my requirements: Must retain FSB. The less weight the better. Would prefer smaller profile, but not necessary. Would like to avoid permanent mods, but not completely against it. I'm a bit confused over the definition of FF vs non-FF. I'm not worried about accuracy degradation on a 16" Middy running irons, or at most a Micro Aimpoint. I see some require "cutting off the delta ring". I assume this is for the FF models. Don't like the sound of that. If I choose a non-FF (assuming this is the one that does NOT require cutting the delta ring off) how do they keep from rotating loose? Some type of set screws? Thanks in advance for any advice. |

It's a great rail that has every feature you're looking for plus it is a FF design and has a built in sling swivel mounts on both sides. When installed properly, the DD Omega has no movement or rotation. Trust me, this is THE rail for your application.

I would have to agree. |

A Troy drop in will be a lot cheaper. If you don't need the free float and narrow profile of the Omega, I'd go Troy.
Don't worry about rotation, they are rock solid. Only reason I sold mine was because I wen't with an Omega. I like the narrow profile. Can't say anything bad about the Troy, and the price is right. Troy mid in FDE
