M4A1 Block II

This isn't an M4A1 Block II (M4A1 + DD RIS II FSP rail). The Daniel Defense RIS II variant handguards attaches to the receiver with the DD "bolt-up" system, whereas the handguard on that rifle attaches via delta ring. It might be a Centurion Arms rail, though I'm not 100% sure. -MT2008 (talk) 13:56, 22 February 2020 (EST)

It looks like an M4 with a KAC free-float RAS and Modular Rail Extension. They were made in the early 2000s on request by the Navy SEALs who wanted more rail space on their M4s. Talk about a blast from the past. Best pic of one I could find that wasn't someone's personal AR posted on AR15.com. http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:M4A1-RAS-MRE.jpg Spartan198 (talk) 10:25, 19 April 2020 (EDT)

Spartan, good find! I'm surprised that I didn't think of KAC when I was searching for options, as the delta ring is very KAC-ish in its design. I also forgot, but about two years ago, Brownell's got a small quantity of those in stock (see here). I guess that this show's armorers managed to snag a couple themselves. -MT2008 (talk) 15:06, 19 April 2020 (EDT)

Really? I'm surprised KAC are still making them. AFAIK, they didn't really catch on outside the SEAL teams. Spartan198 (talk) 02:27, 20 April 2020 (EDT)
