I've had the KMR for about a month now and here's what I've found:
Pros:
-Very strong design. The indexed cross bolt and barrel nut system (shown in the video) is a very solid design
-Lightweight. Aluminum/magnesium blend results in a 13'' rail that weights 7.7oz (with mounting hardware)
-Material dissipates heat well. See the rapid fire portion of the video for actual thermometer numbers on that one.
-KeyMod mounting points at traditional 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions. Also, offset KeyMod attachment points that allow more mounting options.
-Comes with a 5 and 7 slot KeyMod rail sections.
-No indexing required for the barrel nut.
-Available in 10 & 13'' lengths. 9'' and 15'' models are coming as are direct KeyMod accessories.
Cons:
-The only one folks bring up is the finish durability. I personally think the finish looks pretty good but I suppose that's in the eye of the beholder….
Here's a video of some shooting, a discussion of the features of the rail, and my overall impressions of it:
