Knights RAS rail covers

KAC’s iconic Ribbed Rail Panels have seen use all over the globe on US military M4 Carbines. The lightweight polymer panels are ribbed for an enhanced grip, and help insulate the support hand from barrel heat. While originally designed for use on the KAC M4 RIS and M4 RAS rails, these panels are also compatible with many other railed handguards.  

Vero Beach is collectible

Especially for the finicky collector or clone rifle builder, anything marked Vero Beach means it was produced in the early days of the Global War on Terror.  This is 100% authentic, new old stock manufactured by Knights Armament.  Knights is synonymous with small arms production for the global war on terror, and the KAC RAS rails were used on the Mk18 for the US Navy, the US Army's upper receiver version, known as the Close Quarter Battle Receiver, or CQBR, the Mk12 SPR sniper rifle, Mod 1, the M4A1 Block1, the Mk11, the SAM-R and a number of other 5.56 and 7.62 mm rifles the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and later Syria.

Reed Knight began his operations in Vero Beach, Florida, but a few years into the global war on terror, moved to Titusville, Florida.  So, the short period in which Knights operated in Vero Beach is seen as a period-correct weapon to the military clone rifle builder, and a coveted artifact.  You can now own a real Knights factory Vero Beach rail cover.
