Low profile protection - Magpul Mil-Spec 1913 Picatinny Ladder Rail Protector

I bought the Magpul ladder rail protector to protect the side rails on an already very wide fore-grip. These did the job perfectly as they don't add even more to the width or weight. The rungs of the ladder rail protector do have a bit of friction to them, at least compared to anodized aluminum, and can provide a bit of a better grip when dry. Cuts to size easily with a box cutter if you need to custom fit it or break it up into smaller sections.

The rails do sit taller than the rails they protect. It does protect better this way, but it also means that it won't fit under some folded BUIS which leads to a few exposed rails if you ever deploy the sights.
