what do you AR gurus think about this rail system
AR-15 Lite Rail 7.0 Carbine 9.0 12.0 Free Float Quad Rail

im looking to get the daniel defense lite rail 12.0 you can use the above link to see it. (if anyone knows a cheeper place to get one please feel free to let me know.)

im somewhat new to this and dont know much about rails, all i know is i want it to be connected to the flat top and have no gap.

it seems kind of expensive. what om going to use it on is a RRA 6.8.

DD makes very good gear. You won't be dissapointed.

Daniel Defense is the best rail you can get. I sold mine only because I went to a MRP setup. Do you plan on installing the rail yourself? There is some mechanical skill required, but nothing too hard. Getting the top rail aligned with the upper is the most difficult part.

I have a DD Lite rail 12 on my SPR. It is an amazing piece of kit.

I keep changing my mind but I've settled on a DD Lite 10 for my SPR build.
