So IDK what the deal is with Manners' heavier steel "MAX rail" for the TCS, but it's starting to seem like it's never coming out... I emailed their CS a few weeks ago about it, and they said they have no idea when it's going to be released.
I already purchased the 1.2lb front stabilizer weight thingy and 6 of their square 1.8oz weights that fit their newer non-A419 aluminum rail months ago (to have them on hand to play with once I got a hold of one of the MAX rails), but they've just been sitting on my bench collecting dust since I don't have the newest rail.
I run the OG steel rail that they no longer offer with all of the steel weights inserted and it weighs 2.6lbs and I am 95% happy with how my gun feels and balances at ~22lbs with a fat pig Razor G3 on top.
That said, I would like to push the weight more out front toward the muzzle as I like the way that feels a bit better (having experimented with stacking a bunch of wheel balancing weights out front on the rail before).
Allegedly (from Manners text on their TCS page on their site) the newer aluminum rail that takes the square weights weighs 2.2lbs... but I kind of find that hard to believe since my OG steel rail weighs 2.6lbs (and steel weighs A LOT more than aluminum).
Can someone who has the newest aluminum arca rail like in the pic below help me out and confirm what it weighs?
Theoretically, if it weighs what they say it does, I should be able to just order one of the newer rails and bolt on the front stabilizer thingy and end up where I want to be at around the same weight as I'm running now or a little more just pushed forward.
Thanks.
