Looking to pick up the last few pieces for my pistol build... one of those is a quad rail.  I'm not exactly sure what I need to be looking for.  The barrel is a 7.5" RRA... I would like the rail to cover most, if not all of the barrel.  This is kind of a budget build, so I'm looking for something in the $100 or less range, new or used.  Any suggestions would be helpful.  Thanks!

Keep checking E.E.
I picked up used 8" Troy rail for $100. I bought it for an 8.2" barrell but I wish I would have gotten a 10".

Thanks jc, will do!  When you say you wish you would have gotten a 10" ... do you mean a 10" rail?

Yes.
I installed a KX3 linear comp  and I would like the rail to cover part of the comp. I think it looks a llittle cleaner and a little more useful (2" more handgaurd)
I love the barrell 8.2" Blackout.

This is a Midwest Industries 7" Handguard on a 7" Barrel.  It covers about 1" of the Claymore.

Right on...that's kind of the look I'm going for... so I guess I should be looking for something closer to 9" rail.  Does that sound right?  

I would also need to be sure that the rail would clear the comp.

9" rail would be perfect for a 7.5" barrel  in my opinion.
My Troy Alpha Rail was easy to attach to standard barrel nut and clears the comp.
