I just received my 6x45 barrel from Black Hole. It looks great!
When I index my Rainier dimpling jig into the gas port, the jig doesn't rest against the gas block stop on the barrel. There is a gap about 1mm between the jig and the stop on the barrel. I marked the holes through the dimpler and see that the gas block is going to also not rest completely against the stop on the barrel. Thoughts? Should I dimple and install the gas block and not worry about it or should I mark the holes though the gas block and drill the best I can? Thanks in advance, Garland in VA (13nr, newbie, 4th build, so far-so good) |

Thanks for your reply! I figured it was more important to line up the gas port than have it sit against the barrel stop! Back to building! Garland I believe there is usually a gap regardless of what you mount up to compensate for the use of an endcap for though who want to use standard handguards. I had the gap there when I installed my Adams Arms gas block once it was properly set. I was using a FF handguard. |
