![]() Those things are a tube with the rails on it. Not that my dad will drop the rifle from his quad (I’m sure he’ll be super careful with it), I’m just being overly cautious really. I’m pretty sure the mcmr can handle some drops off a quad, Im just unsure of how many drops it’ll be able to handle before it starts bending and the front iron sight ends up losing zero. I had to use a hair dryer to warm it up for it to expand enough for me to install it. I also like how tight the tolerance is between their rails and their barrel nut. Yeah, I like the anti-rotation method bcm came up with. The MK16 looks like something got lost along the way. Overall the BCM just looks like it was engineered to have cake and eat it too. ![]() The BCM has a very well thought out, sleek bolt up and anti-rotate method, and they staggered the MLOK slots. They don’t have any lightening holes but the MLOK slots are inline with each other. The Geissele has obscenely bulky bolt up/attachment nonsense happening around the barrel nut. No experience with the MI, but I’ve done the MK16 and the MCMR. ![]() The mcmr requires a qd mount to be bolted on, and I might be mistaken, but the mk16 doesn’t look to have a qd mount built into it. What I do like about the g4m is the qd mount points built into the handguard. So, does anybody have any experience with all three of these handguards that can attest to their durability and holding zero? How does each handguard anti-rotation device compare to each other? ![]() I don’t want to make the rifle too heavy for him either, so part of me wants to keep the g4m for his build and get the mk16 for my build. Now, I’m sure he’ll be riding his quad around with his rifle and I want to put something on it that can handle some drops on different terrain and still hold zero. The mcmr is the lightest, followed by the g4m, and the mk16 being the heaviest. I also have a build planned for my dad, and I want to put a lightweight rail on his rifle. The only thing that’s kind of keeping me from getting the mk16 is that I plan on getting my lower, upper, and handguard cerakoted green all at the same time and I’m not sure if I’m willing to spend the coin for the mk16 just to get it cerakoted a different color, so I might just go with the g4m. I currently have a g4m sitting in a parts bin I plan on putting on a 14.5” build, but am considering going with a mk16. I can’t say I’ve torture tested the thing though, so as far as durability goes, I’m not sure of how durable it is compared to the mk16 and g4m. It seemed to be fine for what I use it for and wouldn’t hesitate to pick up that rifle in a self defense situation. I really like that rail and how light it is. I had the mcmr13 on a 16” upper that now belongs to my fiancée. The Geissele Super Modular Rail MK18 is compatible with AR15 pattern rifles.I would like to know first hand experience with durability of these rails. The MK18 Super Modular rail is finished in a durable and long lasting Type 3 Hardcoat Anodize available in either Black or Geisseles DDC finish. Utilizing Magpuls M-LOK technology at the major 3 quadrants (left, right and bottom), as well as the upper 45's gives the MK18 unprecedented modularity and ability to be customized. The 16in long MK18 is 3D precision machined using 6061-T6 Aluminum due to its strong, rigid and lightweight properties. The MK18 features Geisseles proprietary 2.25in long barrel nut that interfaces with the receiver and creates a platform that can be trusted to be straight and true the entire length of the free float rail. The flat base of the MK18 features an "Arca-Style" 35mm wide form with a 45 degree dovetail, that allows quick mounting to an Arca-Swiss Quick Release mounting base, sliding into any position along the rail. This new handguard is based on the MK16 M-LOK Super Modular Rail, offering a small diameter and overall height creating a slim profile for competition shooters. The MK18 is the latest in the line of Geissele Super Modular rails and is specifically made to interface with the Arca-Swiss Quick Release System.
