What's the right rail system?

I have a G&G M4 CQB-R and I recently purchased and installed a Daniel Defense Omega rail. However it doesn't fit as nicely as I wanted it to, the top rail isn't flush with the body and there's a weird gap where there shouldn't be. I'm looking to get a rail system that will give my gun the look similar to a HK M416, where the rail system is flush with the body and the rail is continuous from beginning to end. Can anyone help me out?

Here's a picture of my gun with the Omega rail system, you can notice the gap.

The newer DD OmegaX Rail will achieve this look, it uses the DD barrel nut system rather than the standard Delta Ring attachment

as per the pictures I saw on the web, it seems to not have that kind of gap on a Real steel M4 with Genuine DD omega rail. I don't know if this is only related to G&G poor fitment or this problem is on all AEG with this rail. Is your rail made by Madbul ? I was looking to put the omega rail on a KJW M4. For a HK416 look, I would suggest a Noveske 10'' FF rail.

How about the installation skill required ?

No you need special tools and lot of patience or it is a simple process ?

As far as I can tell it's not made by Madbul, there's no markings on it besides the Daniel Defense logo and Omega

Would this rail system give me the look I want?

I have one of those (Madbull OmegaX 7"), very nice rail and very easy to install:

There's a special barrel nut which replaces the stock barrel nut/delta ring; the handguard fits on top and is secured with 2mm Allen screws. An Allen screwdriver is recommended but you can use an Allen key, it's just slower/slightly annoying.

I used my carry handle to align and space the rail properly with the receiver.

Daniel defense Lite or RIS2 rail should provide a gapless end result once installed! (but there might be a small gap, depending on the tolerance of your upper receiver....

Thanks I think this one would suit my needs best, will I have problems installing it though? I heard G&G's are a pain when it comes to this
