Re: Favorite AR Rail Covers?
I like the ladder rail covers (magpul, falcon, etc.). They are low profile and protect the rails very well.

Re: Favorite AR Rail Covers?
I really like the KAC covers but they can make the rail a bit bulky for some folks.
Best to maybe find someone to let you borrow both ladder style and others if possible and make a hands on decision.

Re: Favorite AR Rail Covers?
Depends. I really like KAC's on carbine length rails But I also really like ladders on rifle length rails. I have one rifle that's got ladders on the bottom rail and Tangodown panels on the sides. That has a real nice feel to it.
For some reason my Tango downs got wobbly. I ended up shoving a patch into one of the rail slots to shim them.

Hands down, most comfortable ladders are made by Surefire.... they are not as available as many others... and they only come in black...

KAC and the Tangodown SCAR panels for me. The KAC is a little bulky, but if you have a slim forend, it norms out, plus they are tough as nails.
I like the slim profile of the new TD SCARs as well as the texture.

Re: Favorite AR Rail Covers?
Have magpuls on the sides, a bipod and grip on the bottom, and a ladder on top. Think I would go with ladders on the sides and top if I was going to do it again. Panels are a little bulky, slim is better. I don't do much if any rapid fire with $.80 ammo, so heat is not an issue for me.

UTG (AKA Leaper's).
Why spend a ton on money when you can get 2" rubber covers for cheap? 12 for $14.95 shipped. Black or OD.

Re: Favorite AR Rail Covers?
Prefer KAC where the hand goes and then any ole ladder elsewhere. The KAC has a nice firm ratchet stop to keep it in place.

I tried those on my YHM and really liked them.
Then I tried a JP/Vtac forend and from now on will only have a rail where I need one!
