Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Installing Magpul rail covers???
Posted: 9/21/2005 11:06:05 PM EDT
Anyone want to walk me through the unholy PITA that these Magpul covers are becoming?

I can't get them onto the rails! They're too stiff to just snap over the sides, and the ridges on the underside prevent them from sliding on.


Any tricks?

Put your fingertips on each side and your thumbs in the middle, and spread them, then push them on.

I always found that hooking one side of the panel on the rail and pressing down in the center while pulling up on the opposite side opens it up a little and should fall into place.

Hopefully this helps
