KeyMod vs. M-LOK

[orionz06]

I don't know that the Keymod owners are gonna take a bath on their rails, they'll just be a little harder to sell. Most folks aren't attaching things to the sides anyway to much of that is all moot. Given the choice the answer always was MLOK unless you wanted a specific rail and those rails were desirable and will still be for a few years.


Like Rob I have a few of the Troy TRX Extreme rails. With the continuous 12:00 and still available sling attachments I can't find a reason to ditch it. While they're obsolete in one sense I can't think if anything I want that I can't get.

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter. The gun sitting in your safe doing nothing won't notice a difference.

Ha! He's talking to me alright. That's pretty much what my Troy railed N4 Recce does between deer seasons.

I have two keymod rails, neither of which I plan on getting rid of. With that said, I don't attach anything to my rail besides a light at 12 o clock and back up irons. Other than that I have the bcm grip inserts that plug into the keymod holes. So for me, it really doesn't matter but I probably would buy mlok if I get interested in another upper

I have a ban-era A2 Bushmaster Dissipator HBAR sitting in my safe. Imagine how hard that is to get rid of...

My Dad sold his Colt HBAR 6601 ban-era gun with no problems at all during Newtown. It's disgusting to say this, but there will be a time when you can sell it for a pretty penny, I'm sure. Always is.

The M4C thread on BCM MLOK rails is heating up.

Looks like there are review samples in the wild headed to a YouTube channel near you.

Product listings on the site, and you can sign up for in-stock emails when they finally hit.

Made of 6061, will be a few ounces heavier than KMR. Supposed to be happening in October.

Swapped out a KMR for a MCMR hand guard on my SBR. Easy install; rezero'd today.

Not knocking your decision at all but what did you gain by swapping out the handguard? Besides aesthetics? Just curious.

It was my only Keymod upper and I have other MLOK stuff, so I just decided to standardize around that. I already sold the Keymod handguard, so it wasn't a great expense to switch. To your point, shoots the same.

Planning to do the same thing, all my current projects are based on MLOK and only my first build is Keymod.

I just need to get around to selling my KMR9. It’s one of the lithium-aluminum rails so I figure I can at least get enough for basically an even swap for an MCMR9
