If you manage to get the gas tube rail please let us know if it works in conjunction with an aimpoint h1/t1 combo. From looking at how Templar has his SLR-106 set up it seems like its going to be a tight fit.
I would also be interested to know if the nylon tip on the Danger Close’s mount set screw holds up to the heat generated on the Kalashnikov gas tube.
Mark,
Currently it’s not a QD swivel, but I had heard talk on a thread on LF.net that they were thinking about making it a QD swivel. Don’t know what the status of that is … Might want to drop M4Guru a line
One option of many: http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=25012/Product/AR_15_ADD_ON_RAILS
Check Brownells, Mid-West Industries, and you may want to hit up Grant at www.gandrtactical to see what options he has avalible.
Magpul is suppose to be coming out with some rails soon. According to the poster I got at SHOT … MOE Polymer rail sections from $5.95 to $8.95 depending on length. Magpul has a downloadable catalog on their website that shows their new products.
You can get a MOE handguard for $29.95 and the upcoming MOE rail sections will be less than $10 a piece.
Thanks for the review!
I may be utilizing this for my build as I have a G2
Thanks!
Justin
I see…I thought you are talking about the other kind of rail. ![]()
I’m waiting patiently for the Magpul Mid-Length Hand-guards to hit the shelfs…![]()
How does the Danger Close mount compare to the non-QD VLTOR offset mount? It looks like they’re about the same price, but secure in different ways.
FWIW I have both and for my needs I like the Danger Close because it tucks in tighter to the rail. JMO.
Any reports on it fitting the DD Omega rail? I have 7.0 on both my BCM builds. If it fits I want 2.![]()
From what I am told this mount will fit the standard Omega rail without any problems.
We tried the one at Grey Group (14.5 LMT with Omega 7") and it worked.
I do not know if all of the handguard retaining caps are the same from LMT to Colt to BCM to Noveske, FWIW.
In other news, they’re lighter now! I got a big run back from the anodizer today and the new cuts helped a lot. It went from 1.4oz to 0.8oz and you can tell them apart from the 1" model.
Jon, thanks for the update on the Omega fitting.
Just placed an order and look forward to trying this out.
Thanks for the info on the Omega rail. Order has been sent. I have BCM uppers I will let you know if they work and take pics.![]()
I want one, but am unsure about the 9" Omega rail I mounted on a Noveske Light Reece Basic. I emailed Danger Close about the Omega rail fit this morning and this was his reply:
Joe,
Thanks for the interest! There are varying dimensions of handguard retaining cap so it is difficult to say for sure.
I can put the E-Series and G-Series on an Omega 7" on a stock LMT 14.5 upper if that helps. I’m afraid I don’t have access to a BCM to try it on.
…
Edit - I posted this before seeing Jon’s post above so it’s kind of redundant. The retaining cap on the N4 Basic makes me think it’s kind of iffy, but maybe someone will do the beta testing for me. ![]()
Looks great!

I put a lot of effort into that…it is proudly displayed in the “too expensive to leave unlocked in Fayetteville” case in the showroom.
