BCM KMR Alpha 17
All the advantages and features of Bravo Company’s KeyMod™ Rail, now available in 100% aluminum
Manufactured from aluminum, it is lightweight yet durable. Also featuring a proprietary
patent pending mounting, indexing and lock up system that mitigates 12:00 rail
movement under heat generated from the barrel nut.
Handguard alone weighs 9.9 oz!
1.3” Inner Diameter
1.5” OUTSIDE flat to flat.
Handguard flares forward (towards muzzle end) at the 3 and 9 O'clock positions approximately 1/4"
Actual length when measured to flare is 17.00"
The KMR barrel nut will fit over all mil-spec diameter barrels (max of 1")
Mounting hardware, 2.4oz, for a total of 12.3 oz on a very
long 17” rail.
The KMR Alpha is hardcoat anodized for corrosion resistance as well as to maintain a non-reflective finish.
The KeyMod™ interface system was developed by Eric Kincel
(now the Director of BCMs' product development team) to work in parallel with the
current picatinny system. In many
applications it will advance modularity past the current 1913 rail system.
The BCM KMR Alpha also allows for a larger range of modularity
offering 4 different offset mounting positions between traditional 3,6,9, and
12:00 positions.
In the most basic of applications the KeyMod™ system allows for
universal modularity between various manufacturers of accessories, and
accessory rails. A big win for the
trigger puller. As the industry advances the modular accessories will mount
directly to the KeyMod™ instead of picatinny, allowing for a lighter, cleaner,
and less bulky weapon system.
*Includes BCM® KeyMod™ Sling Mount
