New Centurion Arms tubular/modular rail

AR/M4 AR General Discussion

I just found this on modern service weapon
http://modernserviceweapons.com/?p=1707
Does anybody have any info on this, especially the 5.56 version…I am in the market for a new rail but may have to wait on any purchase until I find out more about this!

I posted a similar question on Centurion Arms facebook page and will update here if/when I receive a response.

ETA:
Pretty darn quick response to the question on FB
“Centurion Arms 12in and 14in are the first that will be out for the 7.62 and the 5.56 they are on the machines now pricing will follow when we have the machine times down.”

I also asked for clarification if that is 12" and 14" for the 5.56 as well as the 7.62

Good stuff. Since I can’t find a 13.5" Noveske tube anywhere it won’t be too bad to wait for the specs on this. I do like their quad rails so I’m thinking this will be equally well done.

3

It does not look like it mounts like the current C4 rail which is a shame. Hopefully it uses the standard barrel nut.

4

That looks nice. I’ve got the KAC URX 3, Geisselle MK4, the Fortis and now this on my radar screen.

5

That looks awesome. I really like the Centurion rails for their ability to install with pinned FHs. I would really love to see a tubular rail with a FSP cut out. I don’t believe anyone does this.

6

Troy makes one.

7

JP also, although it’s a rail with an extension I think.

8

Very nice rail and lightweight. I think people are really going to like it.

I got to handle this rail and the 308 rifle at the BCE booth. I also talked to Monty and told him how much I liked the 16" Douglas barrel I got from him.

The rail is super solid and uses its own barrel nut which only requires a standard spanner wrench to install and locks up with 3 screws, one of which indexes into the barrel nut. It also had the Surefire Scout light mount on it. It is going to be able to mount the light on either side. The holes will take studs directly onto the rail too.

I’d like one too but I think the problem you run into is clearance under the bayonet lug and ability to drive in the taper pins. The flats on the bottom rail accommodate that…

11

The lower has a Centurion emblem on it. Is the 7.62 in Centurion’s future?

12

Looks nice. My only concern is the lack of anti rotation tabs. Either way, Monte makes some ill kit.

13

Dang, I was hoping they would do something REALLY cool… Like a two piece, drop in, slick rail with keymod slots.

That said, it does look like a good addition to the “slim-rail” market.

14

Got a reply to the FB post for the clarification on the 5.56 rail lengths
5.56 will be 12" and 14" as well
hopefully these will meet with great success and we’ll see a 10" or 10.5" that would allow those of us with 11.5" uppers to run a slick rail yet still be able to mount a suppressor.

15

It depends on a few different things, but Monty commented it isn’t going to be super soon.

16

IIRC the 5.56 versions will have them.

17

Very nice, Im still drooling over the quality of the 14.5 barrel I picked up from him last week.

18

I am liking the looks of this rail quite a bit. Will definitely consider this for a build in the future.

19

My apologies for the thread drift but are his 14.5’s still cut-downs of his 16" barrels?

Et tu, Monti?..

Et tu. :frowning:
