Rail covers
« on: November 17, 2006, 01:11:00 PM »
What real steel company makes good rail covers that fit airsoft guns. I know magpul makes some, and so does tango down, of these which is better?

Personal preference, they are both quality.

The Magpul XT rail covers can be chopped up and used anywhere, but the Tangodown rail covers index only at one end (like the KAC ones) so they're a bit less versatile.  Planning ahead can usually solve this, though.

The Magpul covers are harder to put on, but easier to take off, oddly enough.

I prefer the Tangodown rail covers myself.

thats what i did with the "magpul" covers u sold me. i cut them all in half. 6 half covers makes it easier to cover unused slots
