Last I heard, they had planned to do a run of them late last year. I don't think it ever happened then shortly after they halted the civ sales.
I wouldn't count on them being available any time soon. You will likely have to buy and part out a whole rifle just for the rail. My extra 99167 only cost me about $300 going that route.

Are you asking what 99167 refers to?
Yes.
It refers to the KAC part number of the RAS you’re looking for (for the mk12 mod1) - see your post with the rail pic above and link below
KAC-Knight's Armament Long FF RAS, MK12 Mod 1
Knight's Free-Float RAS replaces the standard hand guards on the AR15. This is the handguard that is used on the SPR/A, SPR/B, and Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) SPR aka Mk12 Mod1 or special purpose rifle. This is also the rail used on the USMC SAM-R. The Low-Profile Gas Block may be...

Right now, and for the last year, most anything from Knights has been hit or miss, and mostly miss on availability. @cjs88 pointed out that the LaRue is very similar in design. We just launched a "near clone" premium offering of a Mk12 Mod1 upper receiver with this architecture, and it is a good choice. You can take a look at what we have designed, with our partners, whether you choose this or build your own. Our upper relievers are fit to the Allen Engineering suppressor and tested, which I think gives the shooter a little extra reassurance, but there are those who like to build all from parts, and we respect that as well.

Note: we also have the complete Mk12 Mod0 and Mod1 coming soon in full deployment cases with all the trimmings and full rifles, and also have options for correct optics and suppressors. This is not meant to be a commercial, but for those interested, you can contact me by DM. As always, we try to take care of our friends at the 'hide. I am also more than happy to help any DIY'er with ideas, advise, and some parts.
Both yours? I know the larue rails are almost identical and so are Midwest industries.larue rails . . .
KAC rail . . .

They are out there just have to be quick. I snagged this one the other day. Just waiting on my Douglas barrel now.
Yes.
The MI handguard has a completely different mounting system than the KAC and Larue.

Nice. I had ordered the Larue ones but Midwest was having a 20% off sale today. So I got two for $60 more than the one Larue. And no wait lol.
