Rail space
« on: April 10, 2010, 12:46:33 PM »
Any sugestions on what you think the best thing is to put on it?  Ive got a lot of rail space, and I was wondering if youd suggest a foregrip, flashlight, red dot, rail covers, etc.

There's a reason that there are rails.
Because how you use your gun is different than how I use mine.

I only have as much rail space as I need accessories personally.

Depending on the gun and mission, I use bipods, lasers, flashlights, or foregrips. Other uses that are popular are PEQ boxes and rail covers, although I don't like either of them.

The problem with that is I dont have the money to have lots of extra things.  Until I can find a better income, Im only going to have what I keep on my gun.  Foregrips seem to be popular, so I think I might get one of those.  And why do people have rail covers?  the rails seem to just give me a better grip on the gun.

I like rail covers because I've cut up my hand once on a rail(I wear gloves now) and they do add a little bit of grip. I also think they make the gun look a little cooler too. But all in all its just personal preferance

Rails are only useful if you use them in a way that plays off your base strengths. The fact is that while rails are nice if you don't do your part a rail doesn't change anything. Also consider a few things, the money you could spend on a rail system is very easily put into other accessories such as internal upgrades, or high quality gear. Those will be a lot better for your overall "lethality" then anything you can put on your gun.

Yea, I would prefer better internals than rails, but the gun came with the rails.
