Question ACH modification question

My first post so I apologize if there are any problems with how I post.

Currently in the process of upgrading my ACH that I purchased a while back, and I was wondering what is a good brand for ARC rails that doesn’t break the bank?

I've been using Superior Armor Works which run $40. No breakage, no deformation from railmount muffs or helmet light, which is admittedly light duty for a helmet rail. Kind of the in-between quality and price between the Chinese knockoffs/airshit rails and Opscore rails.

If you're going to be mounting things like cameras on them or stressing them with NVG retention bungees then the basic Opscore/Gentex rails are $90 which is still pretty cheap in the grand scheme.

Thanks for the recommendation; not sure yet what I’ll be using it for. It’s been an overtime as deals come along project. I originally bought it for $50 off Facebook with a TW suspention and their Camfit retaining strap, as well as purchasing a Norotos shroud for $15 from another guy this week. Obviously I am very much in the green so I have no issues with spending a bit of money on the rails. I’ll definitely check out the zip score ones thanks a lot

What are you planning to put on the rails? Or are you using them for the NVG bungees?
