Overview
Designed to cover exposed 1913 Picatinny rail sections, this panel adds a low-profile layer that helps protect the rail while giving the hand a more controlled surface. Its semi-rubbery construction can be trimmed for custom lengths, and multiple sections can be placed together for a more continuous look across the rail. Each panel is sized for one side of a carbine-length rail and comes as a single piece per package, making it a straightforward option for simple rail coverage.
