So, as luck would have it, I bought two of these. One in 2020 and another in 2021. At the time, I did not know this, but there were rumors floating around of the rails bending. Apparently bill geissele handled these allegations incredibly poorly. His reaction and apparent inaction raised many questions and bad feelings regarding his company and the mk 16 rail. That being said, they are still being utilized by the army with few reported issues, at least to my knowledge. That gives at least a bit of credit to these rails. It seems many of these allegations came from a few videos people posted, of which I have only seen one and which seems incredibly shoddy in terms of it’s validity and quality, I will link it below. Can anyone substantiate the rumors of these rails bending? If it was indeed an issue, was it ever fixed? Are my rails among the rails that potentially have this issue? Or is this simply a Mlok rail bending in a situation where many other Mlok rails would have bent?
