    Default New Black Rifle Syndicate Rails interesting?

    New company, interesting rail design. BLACK RIFLE SYNDICATE

    I kinda like the look of them;




    "The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"

    The honeycomb pattern is kind of cool but the tube itself looks kind of low budget.

    I think this new company once the initial "Gotta have to be first and cool" purchasers get theirs, moving them at $300 might be a push. My FORTIS REV cost $200 and looks to be more involved in manufacturing than these. I suspect when they will end at the Sub $200 range.

    Agreed, the HEX pattern is cool, why posted, definitely different. I give them style points 10+

    The core Rail does look kinda cheap, reminds me of nordic defense or YHM modular rail, simple round tube design with modular rails. Although this one all rails are modular top and bottom as well. Can mount at and 12, 6, 3, 9, all the way the around. Plus the 11, and 1 o clock positions in the very front (according to the pictures.)

    The negatives;

    Mounting system looks weird. Looks like a Viking tactical, JP rail system. -1

    Also Don't like how the top rail does not meet up with the receiver. -1

    No built in QD sockets -1

    No modern Keymod format -1 (not that I would actually fill it up, like the clean look.)

    I guess we will see when they actually release / available if they maintain their high price point. If these were around $160-$200 and they are light weight I wouldn't mind having one. No weight specs on the website???

    The mounting point is complicated.

    Looks good, but I'd wonder about weight.

    Mount looks exactly like a JP. Meh.

    It certainly looks cool, but price makes me
