Love the rails, guys, but I have three stupid questions:
What happened to the Front Sight Pocket version of the RIS II? I remember seeing it on your website, but now all I see are the 7" and 12" continuous versions.
Will you be doing more rails in Flat Dark Earth? Any FDE Lite Rails or Omegas floating around?
Is the 10" Lite Rail a standard offering? I’ve seen it on some vendor sites, but not on your website.
Thanks,
Jason
Thanks for the kind words, Jason.
The RIS II M4A1 FSP (new name, new design) is returning soon to our lineup. Look for it shortly. It will be the same SOCOM approved color as the other RIS II models.
Looking purely at sales figures, the black anodized rails are much more popular. FDE rails don’t move nearly as well, which makes it difficult to justify. How many would you like? 
The Lite Rail 10.0 isn’t a standard item (hence not on the site), but I should have some in stock. If you call John or Jay on Monday they can take care of you.
I have a question about this rail can it be used in conjunction with a FSB? I know on your site you say it is meant to be used with the MK12 low pro gas block. But can you use it in conjunction with a FSB?
I think that is the FSP model he was talking about above, it should be like the KAC MRE or DD 12.0 FSP.
Correct. The FSP model has the cut-out for the FSB. Confusing, I know.
The RIS II M4A1 FSP is meant to be used with the standard FSB and CAR gas system.
No, but the new one coming back on line will mirror the FSB friendly version of the original. Below are a few pictures of the original version.
This shows the cutout and FSB area from underneath with the bottom panel removed.
This one shows the original model with the M203 attached.
Last but not least, this one shows the original mounted up on a complete weapon.
The DD 12.0 FSP may be what you are looking for if you don’t want to wait, or don’t need the removable bottom rail section.
Here are a few pictures of the DD 12.0FSP in the M4 variety, but they are also available in the Lite rail style, which is what I would get.
Eric,
If I’m off base, or misunderstood, let me know and I’ll edit my posts.
Not off base at all, Stick. However, I believe we have the new RIS II M4A1 FSP in stock at present. It’s not on the website, but a call to John or Jay at 866-554-GUNS, or to you favorite dealer could get one on the way to your door.
Sounds good, the DD military rail series have really filled out nicely.
Is the new RIS II M4A1 FSP on the DD website? I could not find it.
This is the DD rail that I’m interesting in buying - in black;
SLGLee’s pictures:
No, thats the original submittal for the SOPMOD RIS II trials, which is the same one in the above pictures but coated FDE. The newer one should have the same method of attachment between the upper and lower rails as the current RIS II family, which negates the larger fatheaded screw.
Eric- As always let me know if I misunderstood something, either that or call me up and yell at me. 
So the new version has a continuous rail on the bottom? Or does it have cut-outs for the FSB on both like the original submission? From your pictures it looks like it only has the top cut-out.
Eric or Stick,
Can we get a picture of the current version of the RIS II M4A1 FSP? I want to put something like this on a 12.5" barrel - right now I think my best bet is a Lite 9.5 FSP model - I will have enough barrel exposed to mount most suppressors then…
Spooky
Here are some pics. If you’re wanting a 12.5" barrel, the GL/SSC version of the RIS II was made for that application. However, it’s not compatible with the standard FSB. The M4A1 FSP wouldn’t be a good choice for the 12.5". The 9.5 FSP Lite Rail would be your best bet.
Any pics of a 10" lite rail on a 14.5" and/or 16" M4? I am strongly considering one of these on my LMT.
This is the only pic I have. 16" bbl with Lite Rail 10.0
Thanks Joe that looks great!
Is this particular rail available yet? Will the price be similar to the M4A1 RIS II?
Thanks,
Jason
Here’s the 9.5" Mk18 RIS rail on a 12.5" (cutdown 14.5" bbl).
