Other than the Daniel Defense Omega, what are the easiest FF tubes to install on a stock M4? Need 4 rails, black, can't cut anything, & I really don't want to remove the bbl just to get the delta ring off. Should terminate just behind the front sight tower/gas block. Cost not that important, weight not that important, ease of install & availability is.

| The centurion arms free float rail attaches to your regular barrel nut and from what I've seen it looks to be very easy to install LINKY |

Great profile, light weight, locks up solid, built in sling mounts and no mods to the host weapon. The rail is damn near perfect IMO. Only down side is cost and you state that cost is not an issue. That being the case then getting any other 2-piece rail would be a mistake IMO. Even if cost is an issue, you can find them in like new condition on the EE all the time for $200 or less. Get the Omega, you won't regret it! |

I have a drop in KAC RAS. Is the KAC RAS II just an add on piece for the drop in system? No, its a complete rail that has a short section that clamps to the top of the upper receiver. Its what makes the rail a Free Float rail system... http://quarterbore.com/kac/kacrasii.html ETA: The first couple of pics at the above link are prototypes, the pics at the bottom of the page are the final production version... |

Quoted: That isn't a 2 piece though is it? I think the OP was looking for free-float 2 piece. I have a related question, out of the DD, the Troy and the Centurion, is on shorter than the other? The DD looks tall, for lack of a better description. try this https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pwswheghNQsFnUZMkZNF2DQ#gid=0 |

Doc, beautiful pics, but I'm looking for something EASY to install - their one piece requires a barrel wrench, & their 2 piece requires cutting of the Delta ring, both of which I'd like to avoid. Farmers Fight! backbencher Can I ask why you don't just go with the DD Omega? It's everything you are looking for and more? |

Yeah you're right....didn't read far enough into the post Centurion,Troy,DD,and Apex are all good choices Dremel off the delta ring with a cutting wheel....take your time....go slow...and check your progress frequently....you'll do fine. |
