RCP (Rail Cover, Picatinny) 6.43 " BLACK

• Each RCP is sold as a single individual cover (one cover each, not as a set).
• Cerakoted RCPs are not coated underneath, Coating RCP's underside could make them difficult to slide on and off the rails, and unnecessarily expensive.
• RCP (Rail Cover, Picatinny) is a 1913 / Picatinny rails panel with the AA (All Angles), or dimpled texture. We use the dimpled surface on applications where it makes sense: bolt catches, magazine release buttons. The AA, or dimpled surface, is our idea of cross hatching, same end but different means, more info on the origin of the AA surface can be found here: About All Angles

Briefly, the AA (all angles) surface offers equal traction and friction regardless of the angle of approach, i.e. the angle at which the hand holds it, or the angle of the finger that presses the control. Serrations can be very effective as long as the movement they're tasked to reduce / mitigate is perpendicular, or 90 degrees to the serrations, serrations start to lose their effectiveness when the angle of approach is 45 degrees or greater. Cross hatching has no such limitations, neither does the AA surface.

RCP's locking method is squarely based on Tangodown's SCAR panels. We asked Jeff (owner of Tangodown and a friend over 20 years) for permission to use the locking mechanism, Jeff just laughed and said you don't need permissions to use it, others already copied it without asking. Call it professional courtesy or just common courtesy since he's an old friend, if Jeff declined the request, we would have to find another way, probably not as good as Tangodown's SCAR panel. If RCP bears resemblance to Tangodown's SCAR panels, there are good reasons for it: we like them, and RCP is simply our version of them.

• The large dimples pattern isn't new before we started using it and coining the AA description. The spacing between each dimple, the size of the dimple, as well as the depth all matter, we had the pattern that offers the most tracking and grip dialed in back in 2016, it's never changed since.
• Available in black, Cerakote FDE, ODG and burnt bronze, and in 4 lengths: 1.7", 3.3", 4.07", and 6.43".
• Each RCP is sold as a single individual cover (one cover each, not as a set).
• Designed and made in USA.
