Nickona Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Hi, Looking at getting a RIS for my M4 but cannot decide between a Free Float and a S-System style so would anyone care to discuss the pros and cons (not interested in price/availability or what make atm just the rails themselves thanks) Thanks a lot Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted January 8, 2012 Supporters Share Posted January 8, 2012 Obv free float. Simply because it isn't an S-System rail set. I just think the free float looks better, I also like how it doesn't add anything on top of the receiver, so your optics don't end up higher than they need to be, I think it gets a bit awkward when they're raised. I imagine a free float will weigh less as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickona Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 okay cheers, looking at some pics i think a S type would look a bit odd with the para stock but the free float would look better as it has a more rifley look about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
