The downside of this is that, since it’s all open source, the KeyMod system doesn’t have much in the way of industrial support. Also, while the KMR handguard rail held up well under most stress tests, it didn’t have a perfect success rate when dropped on the ground. If you know you’re clumsy, you may need to re-attach accessories more frequently. The M-LOK rail system emerged around the same time the KeyMod system was coming to the fore. Both systems are similar in many ways, particularly in the focus on lightweight but durable handguard rail options. Unlike the KeyMod rail, however, the M-LOK rail is comprised of long thin slots. The idea is that accessories are attached with their t-shaped nut so accessories can’t just pop off easily. This offers a bit of a bonus and downside simultaneously. The good news is you have more flexibility in attaching accessories you aren’t restricted as much by the slots. This does, however, make it more difficult to attach your accessories where you want them, and you may find it takes longer to attach just because you’re left fiddling to get the placement right. You may be a bit more restricted in which accessories are compatible, since M-LOK plans aren’t open source, but they’ll stay attached!īest Of All Worlds: Combination Handguard Rails The good news? US SOCOM performed a r ange of testing for both M-LOK and KMR handguards and the M-LOK had a 100 percent success rate in accessories staying attached when dropped on the ground.
