Rail covers are the perfect weapon accessories for any AR 15, AR10, or tactical carbine. With most designed to be sacrificial, you install rail covers over your handguard to eliminate sharp edges and protect your hand from extreme heat. Rail panels fit over standard rail systems and are available in a wide variety of colors, including black, OD green, and flat dark earth (FDE). They are designed to withstand high-volume shooting, impacts, and debris so that your handguard and barrel don’t break prematurely. Whether you’re looking for M-LOK rail covers, Picatinny rail covers, or anything in between, we can help!image

What is the point of rail covers?

The main benefit of using rail covers for the majority of shooters is that they make holding your rifle more comfortable. Depending on what kind of handguard you have, it may have sharp edges that can catch on things and be uncomfortable to hold. Additionally, after shooting for long periods, both metal and polymer handguards can get extremely hot. By installing a rail panel kit, you don’t have to worry about these issues. The rails reduce the amount of heat that is transferred to your hands and cover the sharp design of the handguards.

What are M-LOK rail covers for?

As the name suggests, M-LOK rail covers are designed to fit over M-LOK handguards. They snap in like any other attachment that connects with the M-LOK system, making it easy to swap them out. This also goes for KeyMod and Picatinny rail covers, which utilize those connection systems, respectively.

What is the best way to install rail covers?

First, you want to make sure your panels match the rail system installed on your rifle. After confirming you have the right rail covers, install one end first. Slowly move your way up the rail cover, installing it in sections. This is much easier than trying to pop the entire thing in at once.
