Question Rail systems VS Mount Types VS Accessories

Hi there,

After searching for a few days on these forums and around the web in general, I couldn't find that info anywhere.

I'm just wondering about how am I supposed to know what kind of accessories will fit on what kind of rails, and if it doesn't what kind of mount will fit with and that will fit the other... I guess you understand :P

For instance, I ordered a King Arms M4 with Larue RAS. Nowhere I could find the actual type of rail it is (Picatiny, weaver, they're almost the same... Or another type I'm not aware of?)

Now I also ordered an Eotech 552 replica. Again, it's not stated what kind of mount it has, nor on what it should fit on.

Do I need an "extra" mount, a riser or something?

Where can I find information about all these things that would help me put this together? People seems to be knowledgeable here about all this so I'm wondering if I really am just clueless about this or what

Thanks for your help
