Shark Arms has them w/ FSB for $250 shipped. Now that everyone has ordered their green FBI rails, I suspect the barrels will be sold out soon enough.

We would like to. But we cannot commit to that until we can work out the supply of the components. At the moment it will be an exclusive but that will hopefully change in the future.

Yup. His site already says supplies are low so I wouldn't expect them to last long.

Can someone please spec out the proper parts list for a gun that uses this rail? Are they all Colt 11.5" barrels that the troy rails were swapped from? What about gas blocks and the rest? Optics?

Thanks

Since these rails are “Contract Overruns” per G then I would assume that all colors are clone correct.

Yes all Colt 11.5" heavy barrels.

Gas blocks appear to be Geissele but could be wrong.

Black rail guns were approved for Aimpoint Micros and one of the Sig red dots. OD rails have aimpoint t2's. This is from all pics I can find online.

I'd never heard of these green Federal rails before Tuesday but they look nice. Picked one up early this afternoon. Going to pair it with a 10.5 Faxon barrel and probably a YHM can.

You will not have clearance for a can.  The flash hider will be partially covered by the rail.  You need a 9.5 rail, 10s are for 11.5 barrels.

OK I got in on the Mk4 rail so an FBI clone is in the works. ODG of course. I got the USASOC rail kit as well so I could have a ODG CH. Will probably sell off the rail and use the GB. I've already got a URG-I clone in the works in DDC. I like the MK5 with the 1913 sections up front, I'm old school and not a fan of M-Lok.

I think I'm going to build this in 6.5 Grendel though. I know it won't be clone-correct but I'm a big fan of 6.5 and Alexander Arms makes a great 11" barrel that should fit with the rail.
11/23/2018 3:24:16 PM EDT
[#30]
Will an 11.3" barrel (Ballistic Advantage) clear the rail with an old-model Gemtech Trek, or will I need 11.5"?

@gajp

EDIT: Ok I looked at the pics at the top of the thread and I'm convinced 11.3" will fit just fine.

I’m wondering if we would be able to sneak by with a 10.5” barrel on this 10” rail and still clear a can. Below photo shows a 10.5” barrel on a 9.5” rail. Looks like more than enough clearance for the extra 0.5” to be taken up.

Then again the 2nd photo shows a 10.5” barrel on a 10” G rail and it looks like the muzzle device is slightly under the rail.

You'll need at least an 11" barrel, but probably longer.

I have a 10" MK1 with a 10.8" cut down SOCOM barrel with a Surefire warcomp open tine and I still have ˜ 0.15" clearance with a can. Also, the surefire CT warcomps will provide more clearance for a can than the open tine version.

So who is making a good set of polymer parts (stock and grip) in ODG?  Seems my favorite items, BCM Mod 3 grip, and B5 Bravo (foliage vs ODG) aren’t offered or won’t be a good match.

I considered that - if it doesn't fit then so be it. But the back of the YHM muzzle device gives another 1/8" or so of wrench flats which could be just enough. There's also a chance the locking ring can slip inside the rail giving another 1/8" or so.

Dark green dye will get you to a solid hunter green.  You'll then need to do another bath in a mix of dark green and grey or black, but you need to be careful or you'll go too dark.  The B5 FDE stock will dye a little lighter than the BCM FDE grips when you do the green portion.

I'd wait to dye anything until you get your rail if you want it to match in color.

I had decent success using two parts RIT Dark Green with one part RIT Dark Brown (the liquid dyes) to get a Foliage Green BCM Grip and an FDE TangoDown stubby to look good with Magpul OD green. Keep the water at a simmer and leave the parts in for about 2 minutes at a time, checking them in between. Not perfect, but they look fine together. The coloring definitely worked better with the FDE parts, so I’d recommend those as a starting point. I’m going to try a BCM FDE grip soon, since the Foliage one didn’t turn out quite right.
