Pretty much set on a hard rolling cover, not sure which brand is best for me.

For the BAK X4S, I like to side locking/rotating function (vs. velcro on Rugged Ridge). But don't care for rear mounting to the lip only, and it's difficult to remove the cover for the occasional need for full-open bed.
For the Rugged Ridge Armis, like the rear mount and very easy removal. But not in love with velcro, need to press every time, might collect dirt/debris in the velcro.

Can anyone offer advice? TIA!

How important is protection from water intrusion? I am not sure about the Armis but my X4S leaked water like crazy and no amount of sealing will fix it as it’s a design issue. It sure looked great though and convenient to use.

cheers

Thanks for the great point, I had not considered that. Will review both to attempt to predict which will be better for water instruction. Thanks again!

I have never had any issue with leaks on my Revolver.
