Is anyone running a Daniel Defense OMEGA-X 12.0 FSP Rail? If so, what do you think and can you please post some pics?
I was looking at one earlier this year but the cost was a bit out of range at the time but I found a deal on one and I’m thinking about picking one up but I’m curious if you think that it’s too long on a 16" gun…
Thanks.
Here’s my Daniel Defense M4. It is not too long, in fact it really makes it easier to use a carbine length 16" barrel rifle because I can mount my VFG or place my weak hand further out. The rail past the FSP is also great for mounting lights, such as my TLR-2. If you found a deal, get it! The DD Omega rails are strong, well built, and light.
I’m running the Troy MRF-CX which is the same length. It’s the perfect length for a 16" carbine. I have long arms so my grip lands underneath the FSP. Not possible with the 7" rails. Plus I can mount my light in front of the FSP. Add the Magpul AFG and now it feels even better.
My DDM4 with AFG, TLR-1, and LT-707 with surefire G2Led.
I like the extended rail, an aquaintenance of mine is waiting for the omega X 7.0 to become available to swap out his 12X
I got one in the last big Bravo company sale. Very impressed with the Omega X 12 FSP rail system, and I was a little dubious going in, as I had only owned DD’s drop-in rails before. After living with and shooting it for a month, have to say that every bit of it is better than I thought - I like how slim it is, how very sturdy and rigid, how easy it is to remove the rails themselves, and I like the rail space ahead of the front sight base, as well as the ability to mount my AFG out further.

No complaints, though I will probably use panels next time instead of ladders, but that’s no reflection on the rail, just on which rail covers I prefer.
That’s where I saw it… I looked at one earlier this year but I couldn’t afford the $350 they were going for but not they are within the budget…
Thanks.
They turned out to be an even more awesome deal on that complete DDM4 upper. 
Here’s my DD upper with the 12" Omega X. I like it so far, but there is a very slight (maybe “.001-.003”) play rotating about the barrel. It doesn’t bother me, but I figured I’d mention it.

Results still pending as far as “usage” goes (waiting on lower)…
on sale right now at bravo co website…go get them !
Haven’t had the chance to do much more than shoot a couple of mags thru my DDXV with the 12.0 FSP-X rail on it, but REALLY like it so far. Obligatory pictures…(btw, I have since moved the G2 to the right side of the rail…)
I’m a big fan of mine, lets me run my support hand out pretty far on the rail while running an x300 at 12:00.
How many others guys have this issue with slight play or wobble in theirs? And how difficult is it to instal. I have an LMT that I have been considering this rail?
I don’t know the exact size but take a small allen key to the 4 screws where the rail bolts onto the barrel nut and tighten them down. Mine was a little loose when I first got it but is now rock solid after tightening the screws down. My rifle comes with the rail installed of course so I couldn’t tell you the difficulty of installation.
None on mine - I just tried to wiggle it, and it won’t budge. Honestly, if my DD rail had any wiggle, I would call Daniel Defense, because I doubt that’s the norm.
Sounds like a plan - I’ll take a look at it.
Anyone else get the feeling Daniel Defense might be trying to lower inventory before releasing something at SHOT? It seems there are a few specific models that have been on a deep discount sale lately…
I’m ok with that 
me too !!
this gun is sick
