You guys running the PRI third gen rail with AEM5s partially recessed, do you have problems with the screws for the picatinny mounts on the end of the rail hitting the can under recoil? I seem to remember reading a long time ago that mods were required on the screws or mounts to keep them from hitting the can due to barrel whip.

Clipping the screws to sit flush seemed to help but didn't fix it completely. Still got some knocking on faster shot strings. 13.5" BA bbl cutdown if that matters. |

Here is my 13.7. Sons barrel, mk6 and 509T in a 1.7” C1 mount. Turned from my pinned and welded beater to my favorite stick.
Hybrid is a long boi can but now that so many cans are capable of using my keymount adapter I’m not sure which small can to throw on this. Any suggestions? https://imgur.com/a/owMvBTt |

Should round out the collection pretty well. View Quote DEV clone? I have a .300 dev clone built out. Just wondering which LPVO to put on it. Not clone correct but the NX8 is calling my name for this build. |

View Quote So that’s just the RMR plate and holosun ships their 509 with like an adapter plate I guess you’d call it. Raises it off that j arm slightly which I imagine would be a pain on a pistol slide but actually worked really well on this as an offset. Maybe it’s too many tolerances stacked but it hasn’t been an issue for me. C1 mount is a 1.7” |

Hopefully this would be the right place to ask. Looking to build a 12.5 upper, as for rail looking at the MI 12.625 slim handguard and was wondering if I can get away with a BA 12.5 barrel and a Surefire Brake and or Closed Tine and have the gap be probably as TIGHT as possible while still being able to mount a SF can on it. Or would the brake/hider be about even steven or tucked into the rail not allowing for a can to be mounted.
Or... Because I like the MI slim handguard...what barrel would ya'll recommend? RAIL: https://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/MI-SLH12-625-p/mi-slh12.625.htm BARREL: https://www.ballisticadvantage.com/12-5-5-56-government-profile-carbine-length-ar-15-barrel-modern-series.html |

Subtract .7ish from barrel OAL and that's the longest rail you can run with a SF can. |

Thanks! I managed to actually find a 13.7 BA barrel to compensate on the length. I'm just wondering for visual reference, if anyone has any, they can provide if at all possible. Google doesn't seem to be as helpful as I'd hoped.

Well I guess it's fate that a medium RAS popped back up in the EE just a few hours after I said I wanted to go back to a 300 MR.
It's en route to me haha. Back in the 300MR game. Now Steiner or try a 1-6 PST Gen 2? Anyone running the 1-6 PST Gen 2 on a medium RAS build? |
