[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2177859, member: 9374"] Ok, I'm finishing up 3 new rifles next week. Just ordered most all of my parts, and I'm putting rifle-length quads on them all. Each will be a different color, one OD, one FDE, and one pink. I'll probably do a FG one later. So I'm looking at ladder rail covers and holy crap! Most of the 3-packs I am seeing are 18-slot, which I think will only cover up to about a mid-length quad-rail, right? I mean, the rifle-length YHM Diamond rail has 28 rail sections... I would need essentially 112 ladder slots (not counting off for the MBUS or VFG/AFG, etc. These 18-slot 3-packs are running $30+ each... which just seems pretty ridiculous for some colored rubber stuff, lol. I know everything has its markup, but, dang man! I'm gonna end up spending over $100 on ladder rail covers! Anyone have suggestions? Maybe a cheaper brand or place that really sells them cheaply? The Ergo ones I am seeing are just silly high for such a cheap item. I don't want the full cover "sleeve" type, I want it to be low-profile and I want the ladder-rail "look". So... suggestions?
