What rail are you guys using with the GSG-522? Every rail I see that fits the GSG-5 says it will not fit the newer 522's.

As far as I know the GSG-522 comes with a rail pretty much built in, so the clamp on rails for the GSG-5s wouldnt be able to fit over it. It's one of the many changes that the law suit brought about.

Out of the box GSG-522 on top, GSG-5 on bottom...

I bought one, but the rail is plastic and doesnt seem too sturdy. I want to remove the plastic one and replace with a metal rail.
