I don't know if I posted this in the right place or not so if it's not I'm sorry and you can move it.
I have a AR that I still have a stock plastic rail/fore-grip and I have been wanting to get a new one. My buddy that helped me build the riffle told me he wouldn't get a free-floating rail, It's a Delton 16" M4 Carbine upper. I was told to get a carbine length M4 rail. Can anyone explain the difference between a free floating rail and non-free floating? Do any of you AR Guys have any recommendations of a good quality rail that won't break the bank? I just want a good solid rail that I can mount attachments to if I want for right now, I have most of the parts to build another one so when that time comes I will put this rail on that one and but a nicer rail to replace it. Funds are a little tight right now so that is the reason for a cheaper rail right now.
Thank You all in advance.
