2012 Proto Reflex Rail or 2013?
Is there really any difference?

Do they look the same?

There is only a $30 price difference so I'm just wondering if there's actually any difference?

Does the 2013 look better than the 12?

thanks

I think the 12 looks better. The logo is smaller and it looks thinner.
That's the only difference

It's all buyers' choice as far as the outside goes. Oh and insides are the same...

Good to know! BTW, the Reflex's internals are comparable to which DM year?

None, all DMs and PMs have an LPR for a smoother shot. ANY and ALL rails only have one regulator, the HPR.

The DAM actually uses SIMILAR(*edit) bolt as the reflex if that counts... but the DAM doesn't have an LPR either...

Skip on the reflex and get a DM/PM 7/8 instead. But that's just me.

the DAM uses the same bolt style but the bolt is a little bit longer

The left one is from the DAM and the right one is from the reflex


ONTOPIC

the only difference is milling and the reflex jewel
i like the 13/14 a little bit more

just my opinion you should buy what you like

I do feel like I like the '12 more. The Awakening and other PGA skins from 2012 are also pretty nice! If performance is so similar and insides are the same, might as well look into getting the more cost effective one if it looks the way you want.

I like 2012 better, the internals are so similar between the 2012 and 2013 are just so similar, and they have so many cooler colors of the 2012's.
