That is a Midwest Industries rail - http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/Midwe...p/mctar-22.htm - . I went with that one because A. it provides for a monolithic rail (contiguous rail from the upper through the end of the forend) and it didn't require the removal of the FSP. Just cut the delta ring off (again gawd bless dremel, yes sir..) and mount it. Locks up really good.

The PRS is a mighty fine stock, the adjustability is first rate and typical MagPul quality. Though I'm finding that it really isn't giving me anything that I didn't have from my ACE SOCOM L stock. I just have the cheek piece adjusted upwards a tad and that's about it. So given the weight it adds, I seriously thinking about selling it. It does look cool though doesn't it

Interesting thread. Just wondering though. With the 24" on an AR... wouldn't the front sight be in the same location as a 20"? Therefore there would be no difference in sight picture/radius, no? Any differences in accuracy would therefor be totally barrel related, right?

Anyways, I'm happy with my 20". I can only imagine how much heavier the 24" would be once the bipod and scope are on it. The 20" is heavy enough when I put them on.
