I can see it is a CMT DRT rail, but was curious as to the length? I was thinking of picking up the DRT since I have a tano Gei$$ele upper and lower on the way. |

 Ripcord receiver set and handguard. Geissele DDC buffer tube. Modlite PLHv2. Precision Reflex ambi Gasbuster charging handle. I usually have OCD about color match, but I think this turned out pretty good. |

I bought this G receiver set on their Easter sale, because nothing says "He has risen!!" better than a new AR build. In certain lighting the receivers look almost look bronze in color, but it is their anodized DDC and I did read the disclaimer. Bought the handguard off of the EE on this site, which was a very positive experience. However, I should have ordered the G DDC buffer tube instead of the black.

Pro Tip: Tell the wife you buy and sell parts, and show her the $500 you made selling a RIS II you bought for $50… Rinse/Repeat and she’ll never understand all the black’ish guns in the safe… |

I was just looking through some old pictures and came across a rifle I built (and sold) with a Midwest rail that I forgot about but think was Tanodized.
I remember it was painted and I stripped the finish off and it was left with a shiny finish that resembled what I now know to be Tanodized…. The description on the website says “hardcoat anodized” for the FDE model. It may warrant a call to Midwest, but I would bet it’s Tano! The POS Covid rifle I built with second hand EE parts…  Notice the shiny finish…? ETA: After looking at the website more closely I think I stumbled on a discontinued product. Sorry Gents, thought I had something to offer… ETA2: Just found 2 on Gunbroker and bought one! I have absolutely NO-NEED for it, but I bought it and will report back if I have an offering to the Tano gods! Strange things like this happen after a couple of bourbons. The seller had two, but the other is a 7.25”…. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By pezboytate: I seem to remember something about MI having tanodized parts but nothing specific. It is Tano!  The color is almost a perfect match to the FDE Modlite in the picture. The rail is new in the package, but there was a small amount of wear from it rubbing on the plastic packaging (I suspect). Interestingly, the worn off area seems to be exposing some black finish underneath ( look closely around the QD points). I’m guessing the Tano Midwest rails likely started off life as black anodized and were recoated in FDE anodizing… Nice looking rail nonetheless. Now I just need to find something to do with it. ETA: the black came off with some CLP and a cloth. |

Looks like I'm going to be doing a tano build here soon.
I picked up a 16" SR15 upper in black and I have a LMT Mars lower in black on the way that will be sent off soon to be cerakoted FDE. In the meantime, I've got a Vortex Razor Gen 3 on a Badger ordnance mount with my RMR HRS on their J-arm. Picking up a few items from FCD as well. Their FDE trigger guard, Burnt Bronze end plate, and extended takedown pins. Looking at the tano receiver extension from ripcord. That combined with some FDE furniture should get me most of the way there! ETA: Got my FCD parts ordered. How is the fit and finish on the Ripcord buffer extensions? Any feedback on those so far? |

Also was able to use the in-line Arisaka Tano mount I’ve had for a while and pulled the ModButton/LightWing setup off (also on the EE).
