is this compatible with any picatinny rail system or only the KAC rail system?  I've found a good deal on the VFG, but don't want to waste my money on it if it won't fit on my handgaurd rails (UTG rails)

Any rail.  I have one on a DD Omega rail and one on an M&P 15-22 rail.  They are light and lock on solidly.

KAC is picatinny. Your UTG is supposed to be.

I'd consider using a cheaper VFG and upgrading rail system...
But the KAC VFG's will work on any in-spec rail, and most out of spec rails.

They don't get a lot cheaper than the KAC vfg if you don't mind buying used.  They are dirt cheap on ebay all the time.  I've bought one for $9 and one for $15 shipped.

That's why I was asking, I found one on ebay for $15 shipped! Thanks for the info

I know I have a cheap rail system, it's on a cheap DPMS plinker.  I'm actually in the middle of a custom build of a 6.8.  It will be way better quality than the DPMS when I'm done with it.

*ETA* I looked again, it's not a UTG rail, but a GMG rail.  not as cheap as the UTG...
