What comes in the box with MOE version?

[tnharley]

I assume the black MOE has black covers. These are standard inexpensive Magpul ladder rails. They just give a nice tactical feel and cushion to the rail.

Negative. My NIB black MOE 15-22 did not include rail covers.

 

[DialTone301]

I was told they quit shipping with rail covers. Mine didn't include them.

 

[deeds21]

Only the FDE MOE version came with rail covers.

 

[IceAuger]

My black MOE came with the black rail "inserts". I don't call them covers because, well, they really don't cover anything. It has a fairly recent serial number so I don't think it was produced all that long ago (just bought it a couple of weeks ago).

I asked customer service about the rail covers and they said the MOE does not come with it but would send me a sight adjustment tool! Its all good, not the end of the world. Still a sweet gun plus I would have gotten something else anyways down the road!

 

[IceAuger]

Well, that's not true because my black MOE did.

 

[Volc0m23]

Exactly the reason I asked the question in the first place.
I find it hard to believe that a company like s&w would make so many mistakes in packaging. I seriously think shops are pulling the rail covers. Sounds sh!tty but you never know and they're not cheap. I picked up the magpul ladder covers just like the ones shown and they're like $10 a piece. Pissed they don't fit the entire length of the rail too. Oh well. Still love this gun. =]

I received my black MOE around mid May, it didn't come with the rial covers either....it would have been nice to have but not something I will lose any sleep over. I'll just keep buying ammo in bulk and spraying casings on the ground.

 

[tnharley]

You know, those casings are hot....really hot. While I was spewing them out the other day a couple landed on my shooting table and I layed my arm down on them. Ouch!!!!! Now I have two bad burn marks that still hurt like the dickens Sneaky casings! Watch out they are out to get ya.

Well, I found out that when you sweat, .22 casings will stick to you, so I have a fairly good burn on my neck from one last week. But the funniest one (to me) was when shooting my .45 1911 one day with my son, and he was leaning over picking up casings while I shot. One went right down his butt crack, and standing up quick made it worse, not better.

I had a hot .45ACP land on the rim of my glasses and burn an impression on my forehead.

Because it ejected straight there I thought it pinged me a good shot and bounced away, I didn't realize it was STILL THERE, cooking itself into my skin.

Well, at could you can wear that as a badge of honor; my son couldn't.

I would have loved to see that dance .

the ladder rail covers are pretty cheap, they dont really need to be name brand. i bought a couple sets and trimmed to cover all around my handguard that was open.
