Looks great, I'm waiting for my YHM free float to complete my 20in YHM upper...keep us updated on how it shoots

How was the free float install?

Yes, how is that YHM upper? I played with one a few days ago and they felt extremely solid. I'm just curious as to how they preform, since the prices seemed quite reasonable.

Your Build looks great, i have a 16" carbine build with all YHM parts except the rail and it shoots flawlessly. Plus the fluted barrel is really light IMO.

I don't know exactly how the float is installed....I bought the upper pre-assembled.

It feels very sturdy. Seems like it has good quality parts. I am glad I went with the fluted barrel because the upper is heavy. Hope to shoot it this weekend.
