For quite some time now Picatinny rails have been a near-standard when it comes to mounting accessories like optics and lights to various firearm platforms. Many rifles with dovetail rails are given a Picatinny adapter to their receiver to make it easier for their owners to mount scopes to them. Some handguns even feature short sections of Picatinny rails underneath their trigger guards for the addition of lights and lasers. It’s almost unheard of to find a sporting rifle platform that doesn’t have several Picatinny rails built right into it. This and the fact that adapters are so common is a testament to the widespread use of Picatinny rails for attaching accessories and components onto firearms.
Many sporting rifles have handguards that offer quad Picatinny rails. Picatinny rails are reliable - they provide a very sturdy, very secure surface for the mounting of many accessories. But the trust is that a quad Picatinny rail extending the length of a handguard on many sporting rifles sometimes detracts more than it gives.
Full-length Picatinny quad rails are heavy. They are also sharp and bite into your hands, and even if you don’t mind that, they present edges for gear and clothing to snag on during movement. To alleviate these concerns and present some unique advantages, the KeyMod system was developed.
Handguards with KeyMod rail systems don’t replace Picatinny rails. In fact, Picatinny adapters are very common KeyMod accessories that make a KeyMod system more practical. The KeyMod Rail system lightens the handguard and eliminates the edges of a full-length Picatinny rail. It also offers an easy solution for those looking to mount KeyMod accessories to their rails. In addition, and as stated, many KeyMod accessories are in the form of Picatinny adapters, which allows the shooter to offer only as much rail as necessary. No one uses every linear inch on every surface of a Picatinny rail - KeyMod systems allow shooters to add only as much rail surface as needed, and they’re easy to add, adjust and remove.
If you’re considering buying a sporting rifle or some other firearm with a KeyMod rail system, don’t be afraid that you’ll need to say goodbye to your favorite Picatinny accessories. Simply pick up an adapter for a KeyMod rail and you’ll be good to go - plus, you’ll only need to get a section of rail that’s just big enough for the accessories that you want to add and save the extra weight.
