[ARCHIVED THREAD] - M5 RAS question

Posted: 12/17/2003 6:31:42 PM EDT

Hey everyone, I would like to throw together a nice 20 in' AR, and right now, it appears as if I am going to order the Bushy A3 hvy bbl rifle they have listed.

http://www.aimsurplus.com/acatalog/XM15_E2S_20__A3_Heavy_Bbl_Rifle.html

I was wondering if the KAC M5 RAS will fit on this particular rifle. I believe it says for A2 govt profile barrels only, and was wondering if that is what the bushy is, under the handguards.

Thanks for your help guys.

Sometimes it fits, sometimes it doesnt. It depends on the H-bar profile. It fit my pre-ban Eagle Arms H-bar. I believe you can remove the screw mount and retain it simply by the delta ring, however, thats not obviously ideal.

MEASURE THE BARREL DIAMETER JUST AFT OF THE FRONT SIGHT TOWER. THIS IS THE ONLY CRITICAL DIMENSION. IF IT MEASURES 0.835" - 0.855", THE KAC M5 RAS WILL FIT.

Thanks alot for the help. Due to my lack of tools, I may have to post a picture here later and get some help that way.

Thanks again for the quick replies.

TAKE A NARROW STRIP OF PAPER. MEASURE THE CIRCUMFERENCE WITH IT, IN MILLIMETERS. TELL ME WHAT IT IS. I'LL TELL YOU IF THE KAC M5 RAS WILL FIT.
