Which rail works best?

[deepsouth]

Which one of these works best?I seem to remember that one requires less modification .I love my mini g but Im going to have to put some type of low powered scope or optic on it.I just cant see well enough to use the irons.

I got the one from Fulton Armory, it does change the balance forward a bit. Yet to scope it, so even more weight...

Thanks for the answers.If I remeber correctly,the rails need some modifications.Which one needs less?I remember something about this from the old forum.MrShufflin do the rails need to be sent to u for modification.One of the rails requires op rod modification,right.

Both barrel brackets need milling as well as the top of the oprod that runs along the barrel. Of course... you could get a drop down gas cylinder from Standard Parts and then you would need a straight oprod but no milling on anything.

How much (depth and length) needs to be milled from the oprod?

till it clears
