I purchased these on eBay and delivered today. Described as "Minty Knight's Armament RAS fro mil-spec carbine". The auction ended early on a Tuesday, hopefully that is the reason for my low purchase price. For $122.50 shipped I got the RAS and 3 11 rib panels. Please authenticate if possible with these pics.
Did not come with the allen wrench, I used my handy dandy bike Park tool. It locks up very tight, and definite quality, if it is a chinese knock off it was done very well. Whadya think?      Yes, I have since oiled the park tool. I moved this from the |

Looks authentic from here. The low price does make you wonder if they were lifted off a military gun, or out of an arms room someplace. Iraq bring back maybe?

It looks real to me as well. I'm afraid there's a lot of stolen ones all over the place. Not saying yours is, but it is a possibility.

I bought mine from MSTN. The one I bought was the real deal and had the real price tag to go with it. With that said, yours looks the same. I think you were just in the right place at the right time and got a good deal. Good score!

Do you have a side view of the rail system? It should say Knights Vero Beach on the side of the rail not just under it. Also should have their phone number on there as well.

I would say it is authentic. I doubt an airsoft knock-off would have the Knight's logo stamped on the sheet metal heat gaurd on the inside of the lower rail like the authentic product does. I hope yours came from someone selling it off to pay for their kid's dental bill instead of the seller where I obtained mine. I was pretty angry to find out a few years later from an NCIS Officer that some scum had stolen several of these from the Navy and I had purchased one such RAS. The positive ending is that by the sound of it...they nailed him in the end.
It made me feel dirty purchasing stolen goods. They haven't asked for it back yet. Nor do I think they will. I feel justified by keeping it in that it is put to good use on a daily basis, accompanying me in my cruiser everyday I suit up and work the streets. It keeps it happy keeping scum in line...although I know deep down, it would rather be gettin' some in the sand with Haji's on the other end. |

Knight's stuff is not going for much, as of lately. I got a NIB M5 RAS for $174 shipped, with full rail kit and VFG.
A NiB M4 Ras for $135 shipped. Seemd the Free Float kool aid drinkers, are driving the price of non FF stuff way down.. There is some Knights knock off stuff on Egay, but it seems most of it is FF. Lok for wrong phone number on marked on the rail sides. It will have a California number.. |

I think a lot of it has to do with when the auction ends. I got a brand new knights armament rail with all the accessories for 197 shipped because the guy had two of them listed that end 1 minute apart at 8 am on a Sat morning. For all of you sellers, have things end on a Sat or Sun around 8 pm centeral time. That gives both coast good hours.

Not sure if its much consolation, but all the knock off airsoft, stuff, i have seen...does NOT have the machined area, for the gas tube to run.
Aside from that, not much differences......oh, and they also have the same serial #, on all of them. Unless they've started to vary it. |

Make an agreement with the seller to list the parts on the invoice as Paintball supplies. I've bought several $$$$.$$ worth of "Paintball" parts (including an FFL transferred item ) in the past year using Paypal alone. What Paypal doesn't know won't hurt them. Only problem will comp up is if Paypal gets into paying out a claim. Insure your package, track your package and deal with reputable sellers ONLY. Paypal can still be used, and you get the satisfaction knowing that you're STILL sending money for gun products through a company that hates guns.
