It's nice to see that they are releasing different lengths. My friend has the 12" and I am in love with it. I'm hoping the release a 9" version next. I need one for my current build.

So does the 12 inch REV weigh less than plastic handguards and delta ring and all that jazz?

How much does it wiggle? The only 100% wiggle-free forearm I've ever owned was an ARMS. It's my only concern with trying a new brand. |

I have used Larue, Midwest, Troy, and Fortis. The only way the REV could wiggle is if your barrel nut was loose. And if it's wiggling you probably have bigger problems. The more I look at the 14" rail, the more I like my 12". I like the longer rail on an 18" or longer barrel. I don't like the rail to be as long as the barrel except on SBRs. If you are on the edge considering trying the REV, my advise is do it. You will not regret it. |

There in stock at Rainer Arms today in both lengths [+] Fortis REV™ Free Floating Rail System - 12" $199 and 14" $218.
A bit steep for me and Nordic Components has carbon models that weigh 6 to 7 oz. and there house aluminum brand for half that price. I used the 15" FF and solid as a ROCK Anyhow a very cool looking hand guard and lots of picatinny space... |

Gotta break it in right! No better way to do it. Whenever the smoke clears from some recent purchases I am going to order a couple more Revs to replace a couple Troy Alphas. I love this rail. After looking at the pictures I don't really care for the looks of the 14" except on an 18" or longer barreled uppers. I think 12" looks perfect for 14.5" to 16". |

Luckily when I bought the upper I put my Rev on it came with a Troy lo-pro gas block on it. Because it is tight around the gas block. I don't think that how I usually cut a fsb down would be enough to clear the Rev. It's very tight. Here is the best picture I could find in my Photobucket that shows how tight it is to the gas block.
