AR10 High Profile Rail Options

ingEneer22 · January 19, 2015, 01:37 AM

So I though I had my first .308 AR figured out. I had all of the parts picked out and come to find out that the Seekins SAR rail I wanted to use would not align with my Aero Precision upper which is apparently a high-profile upper. Can anyone make any suggestions for a high profile rail or handguard. It doesn't seem like there are many options.

There are actually more high profile rails thanks lo profile. Check out rainier arms, Midwest industries, Troy, and Samson. There are more I just can't remember.

I had the same issue with mine, I got the the AP upper with the high profile, I ended up with a troy rail. I believe it was 200$, but it is discontinued from the manufacture, but still on Optics Planet.

I have mine on an 18inch barrel. There is more low profile stuff out there now, 3 years ago it was the other way around.

I went with the Rainier Arms Switch rail by Fortis. Its a little pricey but i love it and it also is quick detach...pretty sweet. Ill post my build when i complete it. Damn Fulton Armory sent me the wrong pivot pin size.
