I found this on EBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vector-15-Keymod-Rail-Free-Float-HandGuard-308-7-62-/232013034055?hash=item36050df247:g:SjYAAOSw7W5XONhX

Someone tell me why I shouldn't buy this as opposed to a $200 rail for my DPMS .308?

ebay is known for selling cheap "Made in China" knock-offs and air soft products that in no way compares to the real deal.

They also are known for not protecting the buying public as well as other sites.

Because your link wasn't hot I didn't try to look up the exact product in question, but you now have the main reason why it usually isn't a good deal.

That was my thought too, but I just wanted some opinions.

They are not that bad but I can tell you that their keymod are not fully in spec to lock down. It's missing the cut inside the slot. Other than that the guntech hand I used on my 9mm build looks great.

I bought an el cheapo Gun Tec USA muzzle device for my Draco pistol, it was machined correctly and the fit n finish was fine.

BUT there have been several complaints of 'budget' keymod rails not locking properly due to improper machining, so a keymod rail is one place I wouldn't scrimp.
