The 7.62 Lite Rail™ features our patent pending “Bolt-Up System” allowing simplified alignment to the host weapon upper receiver and providing a continuous, uninterrupted upper rail platform for weapons with flat top upper receivers. The battle proven “Bolt-Up System” is also used on the Daniel Defense RIS II (selected by SOCOM for the SOPMOD II program). Every component of the 7.62 Lite Rail™ has been precisely assessed, thoroughly shot & tested, improved upon, and manufactured tough enough to become the new benchmark in 7.62 rail systems. Using specifically engineered barrel nuts, the Daniel Defense 7.62 Lite Rail™ is compatible with the Armalite AR10, Rock River Arms LAR-8, and DPMS LR-308 rifles.
If you plan to use the 7.62 Lite Rail on an Armalite AR10 upper receiver you may have to the replace ejection port cover hinge pin to a longer length due to the bolt up plate position in relation to Armalite’s upper receiver design. Otherwise the Ejection Port Cover pin may not be captured and could come loose.
