Classic rail to make my automag awesome

I have an automag I have been building up. Right now, it has a blue ULE body, and I've got a pneu-telli frame on the way. The rail I have is an old classic rail that is kinda nicked up. Is there a gloss black rail that I can get that will work with the classic-valve and ULE body and that will also look awesome?

I could rant on and on about how much I love my automag, but I think I'd be preaching to the choir.

Well, any classic rail would work, you just have to polish it a bit.

Alternatively, if you can find a willing annodizer, take a stock classic rail, give it a mirror polish on the parts that will show (strip the anno) then have the annodizer give it a dip.

You can get so many rails for your mag, the choice is up to you. Maybe a Omega rail?

Patience is a virtue.... Some rails are hard to get, unless you are willing to pay top dollar for it. Or wait untill something you want gets available for the right price.

How much are you willing to spend?

The mini-Shadow is basically the lightest rail avail, but kinda pricey. Or you can go with the mini-Wave. Most other nice aftermarket rails you'll have to get used.

Pro-team may have some. The last time I was at their site, it said they did. From what I remember of the pics, they were nowhere near as bulky-looking as the sock ones, and they had some nice milling on the sides.
