[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Whats the consensus on 2 piece rails?

What's the consensus on 2 piece rails? Should I avoid them like they are Tapco crap, or are they worth it?

Hello no!!

My Troy 2 piece has been 100% reliable!!

my issued KAC rails got loose, my YHM 2 piece rails are still tight after a few trips to the sandbox, but they aren't true milspec 1913. I've heard good stuff about the MI and the Troy 2 piece rails though. The surefire m73 rails and the GG&G rails are good too, but you'll pay the price.

I've got a KAC RASII. Locks up tight. I've never had a problem with it.

My KAC RAS is as tight as a virgin on Prom Night.

I like them. You buy them from Troy, KAC, MI, or now DD and you're gonna get the quality you paid for.

The MI freefloat 2 piece works great. It is the best way to go for a 14.5" in my opinion.
