Knights Armament KAC M5 RAS for M16 w/ 2 rail panels, USED

M5 Rifle RAS Forend Assembly for M16, complete with two 11-rib RAS rails

The KAC M5 RAS (Rail Adapter System) was developed for use on the US military’s M16A4, and with hundreds of thousands of rails issued to date, it is one of the most battle proven designs available for the AR-15 platform.

This is a used, medium grade rail with used RAS rail covers.  Grade C+ / B-, the rail will be fully functional, but will have significant scratching, especially on the Picatinny rail.  Photos are offered to give the buyer and example.  One picture is of a new rail, so look at the pictures that show the scratching.  Charlie's gets these used in bulk from surplus shops, and cannot take a picture of the item you will receive.  No returns for cosmetics.  You will find that we are very picky graders, so most customers are impressed that their used, blem or demo product is better than described.

This non-free float handguard is a simple-to-install, drop-in upgrade that features genuine Mil-Spec M1913 Picatinny Rails along its entire length. What sets the M5 RAS apart from other 2-piece quad rails on the market is that it securely locks to the rifle’s barrel nut via a clamp and screw arrangement, making it a very solid foundation upon which to mount tactical accessories.

Includes two KAC 11 Rib Rail Panels.  Vertical grip is an optional add-on.

Rifle Requirements: The M5 RAS is a drop-in replacement part for standard, 2-piece polymer, A2-type handguards. The rifle must have a rifle length gas system, delta ring assembly, fixed front sight/gas block, and either a round or triangular handguard end cap. Lighter barrel profiles work best (Government contours). Heavier barrel contours may require modification to the inside of the rail. For AR-15/SR-15 based platforms only; not compatible with SR-25 variants. Installation instructions are included.
