I agree, OP.  

I just cannot get into the Keymod or Mlok designs.

Sadly thats the way the industry is going.  I just bought an SR15, and it came with the newest URX mlok rail incarnation.  Obviously not a deal breaker or I would not have bought the rifle, but it's just not "sexy".

It's all about the individual rail design with Pic.  But, generally, M-Lok is very easy to make look good.  KeyMod always looks like shit.  





I personally think the Geissele Mk4 M-Lok is the sexiest rail.

Agreed.  20 years from now they'll be going all retro on quad rails.

I have to disagree with you.

Between the extra weight and the cheese grater effect......quad rails suck in comparison.

I never really had an issue with the "cheese grater affect"...on the contrary, I feel like I have a better grip with quad rails.

This guy gets the correct answer prize!  Quad rails suck.  To keep from eating up your hands, you have to put on rail covers, adding even more weight.

My AAC .300 upper (see my avatar) came with the URX 3.1 and I was initially disappointed at having to screw on accessory rails, but then I figured out that lighter / smoother is better.  These or big G (Geissele / ALG) rails FTW!

Lol, when I think of "battle rifle" an AR-15 is the last thing that comes to mind.  A battle rifle is 10 lbs of wood and steel son.



But if I'm not being nostalgic and want a functional working rifle, I'm going to use the best technology  available.   Quad rails add unnecessary weight and have poor ergonomics compared to Mlock.

I like it on a thin handguard with a pressure pad on the top rail section (like my SBR), But other than that I agree with you...

It does have its purpose, but there are a lot of "tools" around for sure

Too much unnecessary weight and rail space if you're not gonna use it .

Also is rough on the hands unless you add some rail covers which adds more weight .

Mlok  is the best thing to happen for the rail system .

The only quad rail I ever liked the look of is DD's MK18 rail. The FDE one, of course.

Whatever mlok and keymod are, they have passed me by. I have had no need or desire for a rail of any kind for many years. Call me an AR dinosaur. I'm still shooting a basic Colt 6721, and own some 6520, and a decent frankengun on a YHM receiver..

The US military is long overdue for an upgrade. They should go with Knight's URX or Geissele's rail.
