Hey all ,
Quick question?. Edit :Have a URGI withG gas block.. I am I good to go? No bent rail.. Tried reading through most of thread and just got more confused. Not trying to clone just wanted a 14.5 upper and thought this was cool. I will not be mounting a MWAL.just light and optic. Thanks in advance. |

Video is around here somewhere. I would go with a different gas block. The raised ribs on the G block isn't the best thing nor is the fact that a nitrided 17-4 block is hard as hell and would beat the crap out of anything it hits. Eta: you can't go wrong with the clone correct block from DD. Problem is you can only buy with a complete barrel. |

If you are concerned about it. Maybe just replace gas block with a lower profile one? The MK12 gas block is almost too big btw. It touches or comes real close to the bottom. That's another whole issue that became a big flailex in this thread. Also if you have a newer rail there is a small difference I noticed that may make the thing a bit stronger. They may have quietly updated them. |

I was one of the people to get the 35% coupon (thanks G!) so this is a recent rail, NSN marked etc. Notice they have seemed to increase the radius of this inner fillet. This is a what I would have done. Increasing this fillet just a little bit can go a long way. Structures don't like sharp inside corners. Under various applied loads, stress will concentrate right at this corner and failure will occur there. If you wanted to reinforce the picatinny section, that would be the thing to do. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/35055/fillet-1305302.jpg Once again this is all speculation by me, based on two rails I own. This may just be a manufacturing variation but it was noticeable enough that it caught my eye. View Quote |
