In the pic below, what length/model rail, and what length barrel+kx3 is used to look like that.  I love how the kx3 is half concealed in the rail.

looks like a 10.3 daniel barrel with a 12 in. DD M4 rail

looks heavy.  I don't understand why people make SBRs and then weigh them down so much.  that thing probably weighs in the neighborhood of 9lbs.

but on to your question... what he said ^

The stock and redi mag are a little over the top but being able to add optics and accessories like lights to what was once a Colt Commando are worth their weight.  The KX3 is another symptom of the tradeoff between the usefulness of a short rifle and the price you have to pay (blast).

I personally would not opt for a UBR or redi-mags, I was more interested in the rail and barrel length + the kx3 to look like the above.  I wonder if Noveske could whip up something like the above pic.

If you can get them to put a Daniel Defense rail on, sure they can.  They run Troy TRX too, so perhaps a call to NRW is worth it.

Since Stickman took the picture, you should ask him.


Didn't know since he took the picture if he knew what hardware was installed.

I would lay money that he does.

that is  a dd m4 rail.  Only a couple of rails will allow a KX3 to be shrouded.   DD M4 and troy TRX are the ones I know of.   12" rail on this one. I think its a 10.5 inch barrel.  I have a noveske 10.5 with a KX3 and a 10 inch lite rail.   Measured.. if it was 2 inches longer it would be about the same as pictured here.... if it fit over it ov course.
