You mentioned Geissele, have you looked at the ALG EMR? Very affordable.
You could also look at the upcoming URX 4 in MLOK. Price will be higher though. |

Price will be higher though. I've seen the ALG's but they really just seem like a Troy Alpha with mlok slots....or am I way off base? KAC is out of the question just because of price |

My interest has been piqued by the Midwest Industries offerings.
8.2 oz with barrel nut (12 inch length) I handled a friend's rifle with the keymod version, I was impressed. http://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_ID=1266 |

ALG all day...would never use another Midwest Industries, they are way too flimsy.

There are small flats on the OD for the M-Lok accessories, and they do vary a bit from model to model.

i really like my midwest industries keymod rail, although i'd have preferred mlok. so i'd recommend you check out their offerings, and then my other suggestion would be an ALG rail, because they're really cheap, but seemingly decent quality.

SLR Rifleworks Solo line is bada§§. Available with MLOK or keymod, quite a few different lengths and weights with the regular Solo, the mid, lite and ultralight configurations. I have a 15" Solo and couldn't be any more satisfied. I hear LOTS of others say the same. Definitely worth looking into!

I looked at Midwest and I've liked other products from them but the small tabs that hold the rail to the barrel but sort of makes me worry. |

The only benefit I can see to using an aluminum barrel nut is a tiny bit of weight saving and avoiding the gauling of the metal
