Hey guys,
I ordered (2) sets of black, (3) sets of FDE and (2) sets of OD Green back when the XTM panels were first released.
I received the black and FDE months ago. However, I received the OD Green about (2) weeks ago.

The issue is, the newer model doesn't interface very well with the original design. My plan was to interchange the colors. I had to squeeze them together with a pair of padded vice grips in order to get the tabs to engage. They also exhibit some wiggle. Something that isn't present in the original panels.

The rail is in spec. It is a Daniels Defense 10" Lite Rail.

Sorry for being a woman.

I;m sure the Magpul guys will make this right. Mine are all the latest release and fit together like a charm.

Funny you mentioned this.  I just got done doing the same thing with a new set of black I got today and an older (how long have these been out?) FDE and noticed the same thing.  When I use a black & FDE together they are loose, but not when I use the same colors together.

Hmmmm......

I've had the older ones that don't have the rounded edges and they fit really tight.  I also have some of the new ones with rounded corners and they have a little bit of wiggle but not too much.
