Balthazar Choi's Review of Strike Industries SMC Charlie Top Rail
The top rail completes the SMC Charlie setup; without it, the build looks unfinished and lacks proper form. It allows a long pic rail for a BUIS or a quality optic. One factor is that the top rail requires the Extended Charging Handle by Strike, as no other method will rack the slide. The cost felt reasonable, and the Optics Planet offered a bundle for bot, which I took.
Another point is that if your SIG slide uses suppressor height sights like mine, the top of the sights may touch the rail’s underside, particularly the front sight. I chose to remove the sights from my slide. Alternatively, you could lightly shave the top of the sights to create clearance. The OEM regular sights are low enough to clear without issue.
