Hi! My husband and I bought our home with the pool already installed. We are replacing the liner and cannot figure out how to get our top rails off! There’s no caps where they connect, they almost overlap and have a circular part that looks like it should screw off. Anybody familiar with this manufacturer?? Thanks in advance!
Help! Can’t figure out pool manufacturer.

Not sure on manufacturer but take a screwdriver and pop those grey tabs out. Your screws should be under there. They are just finishing tabs to hide the screws.
Thank you, but we have tried that.... and my husband is a concrete mason, so he’s pretty strong and knows his way around tools. If that’s the way to do it, those suckers are really in there!
I agree with Casey. Another option is to contact your realtor and ask her/him to contact listing realtor for you home to see if they have a way of contacting the previous owners to ask them. Normally a seller uses the same realtor that lists their home being sold when they purchase their next home. I know we always have. 
The key to the mfg is that logo on the post. I thought it may be a Buster Crabbe because it resembles a Cancer sign, but I can't find anything of theirs that looks like that.
Have you checked around at the local pool places to see if they have ever sold pools with that logo?
I'm sure you've tried it, but I think that plug on top of the rail twists to come off.

Go to Identify My Above Ground Pool - INYOPools.com they will help you identify your pool manufacturer
That is the same as my pool. It was marketed by my local pool shop as the Discovery by SwimAboveGround.com but the paperwork said Wilbar.
It's a beaded liner. The thingy on top unscrews and undoes the entire leg "no tool design".

Thanks so much for posting this.
One of us may not know much, but our collective knowledge is amazing!
Thanks everyone for all the advice! Our paperwork from the purchase of our home had very little info on the pool, except that it was installed in 2013 and the measurements. And the sale was done through the previous owner’s employer because they relocated them. We still don’t know the brand, but did manage to remove the caps by unscrewing them with a blunt ended punch tool and rubber mallet. It’s an overlap liner.

Thank you so much! Luckily I got it figured out before checking back in here, but that is definitely it! And thank you so much for sharing the brochure!!
You should definitely consider purchasing a beaded track for future liner changes. Once you go with a beaded track, you never have to remove the top rails for a liner replacement. It just snaps right into the bead reciever.
