Features:

1-Piece Design: The GRIDLOK LITE Rail is a one-piece design, which helps minimize weight and provides a cost-effective solution for AR-15 owners.

This makes it suitable for those who want to use suppressors with their AR-15 rifles. Additionally, it is compatible with Strike Industries muzzle devices, including the SI OPPRESSOR.
