Lets hear your opinion on these top rails and arca rails....

[KevinWood44]

This is a very typical problem I run into.....I like some aspects of a Saber Tactical accessory but also some aspects of a K&L or Air Marksman.

I am getting a 700cc bottle for my M3, I already sold my Saber Extended arca rail but I can't decide between getting the Saber Low Profile Rail or the K&L Gen 3 arca rail in the 700cc size.

I like how the K&L fits below the entire size of the bottle but I also like how the Saber Low Profile Rail has M-Lok that are closer to the center of the rifle (if I want to add weights to balance the rifle)

Top Rail....this is even harder. I absolutely LOVE what Air Marksman made!!! Making their Backbone FULL length to add a crazy amount of stability AND adding the detent for the cocking handle. Genius!!! One of the best products of the year. (Personally I like the mini version the best) BUT just being honest I wish they added M-lok. Not crazy about the look.

**I just got the K&L PRS buttstock! AWESOME part!!

Anyway, what do you guys think?? Which do you think looks the best? Which is the most functional?

I'm personally liking that full length better

I like it too. I am def leaning that way.

Top rail is pretty useless to me. It's just fluff to make the gun look badass. As long as I have a place to attach a bipod on the bottom, that's all I need. Arca, picatinny? Who cares.

Air Marksman fixes the weak spot on the Impact... Takes the slop out the back of the rifle.

I get it. I meant what I said, I think this is the single best part made this year. Id be shocked if the M4 didn't change top pic rail to be one piece with the "backbone"

I had the same decision to make. Liked the Air Marksman because of the backbone but my personal opinion is it's ugly. Ended up with the Saber and am happy.

I am happy to hear that. I was curious if the Saber did a decent job of stiffening up the Impact. I messaged the guys from Air Marksmen, complimented them on the backbone (I really do think its great) but asked if a Gen 2 would come out soon bc some M-lok (with a more AR-15 feel) would be nice. They never replied lol FX should put the mini version on all Impacts moving forward (I think they call it the short, the one Stoti has) It stiffens it up without the ugliness of those weird circles.
