Not with the current scope on it. Took it hunting several times last year and bagged a doe with it, but that was with a red dot. Still need to get it resighted in with the scope. I was kinda holding off till my other rifle sells so I can pick up a Leupold VX-R capped 1-4 to replace the 1-4 that's on it now.

I belive the 308 lines up and it's yet to be seen on the other sizes. |

Ok, guys, I need your help. I talked to Rainier and they said, to their knowledge, there isn't an adjustable gas block that will fit the CMR. I have a LOW MASS seekins BCG I was hoping to use, so adjustable would be preferred. Anyone using a Syrac, or similar adjustable gas block with their CMR? Thanks!

I'm in the process of building one with a 12" CMR and a Syrac Ordnance Gen II adjustable low profile (.750) set screw style gas block. Based off their website dimensions I personally don't see it causing any issues. Or at least no more issues than any regular low profile gas block. The base dimension on the lower end is cutting it close so I'm expecting to have to grind or mill some off the bottom based off some of the other people's experience with other gas blocks by YHM, Noveske, Vltor, BCM, and others. I was originally considering the Seekins Precision adjustable gas block but it looked to wide at the top with their side adjustment so I didn't want to take the risk without having proper dimensions. Hopefully I'll have time this weekend to mock it up and do a fitting but if all goes well I'll let you know as soon as possible. |

I'm thoroughly happy with the design and slim profile of this handguard but I'm curious if anyone else recieved ones with numerous dents and dings. I can completely make it work fine but I have dings on the picatinny rail that if cleaned up to make smooth will remove the coating and be obviously visible. The dings at the back won't allow it to freely slip over the barrel nut. The corner of the right anti rotation tab is completely dinged over so it won't slip freely over the upper also. I really don't want to return it but for $300 it seams like packaging or handling from the company should be slightly better.

Also they have a 15% restocking fee for returns and wasn't sure if this qualified even though it would be an exchange not a return. |

Ok, so I sent an email to centurion including the photos and they handled it fast and professional. I should have my replacement by the end of the week. Truly happy with their service and of course a company standing behind their quality product. Thanks Stickman for suggesting I do it instead of me being impatient and just fixing the dented up one.

Monte, Corrie and everyone at Centurion Arms are what most others in this business aspire to be like. They set the "high water mark" in my opinion. No finer people to deal with, period!

(please no making fun of the stupid "New York State Safe Act" compliant grip) It has a SS match barrel with nickel boron BCG and a Syrac Precision adjustable gas block. I had to mill off .050" from the bottom of the gas block to make it work. It interfered by about .010 and I wanted ample clearance. Personally I think it came out great. I even Bead blasted the barrel to match the gas block. I would recommend pinning the gas block like I did also because after milling some off the bottom there are only about 3-4 full threads left to hold that thing on even with a dimpled barrel.

I had to mill off .050" from the bottom of the gas block to make it work. It interfered by about .010 and I wanted ample clearance. Personally I think it came out great. I even Bead blasted the barrel to match the gas block. I would recommend pinning the gas block like I did also because after milling some off the bottom there are only about 3-4 full threads left to hold that thing on even with a dimpled barrel. <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4531_zps54721030.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4531_zps54721030.jpg</a> <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4519_zps7e90b3e5.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4519_zps7e90b3e5.jpg</a> <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4523_zps253737ae.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4523_zps253737ae.jpg</a> <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4520_zpsd2b00725.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4520_zpsd2b00725.jpg</a> <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4521_zps5c188dc2.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4521_zps5c188dc2.jpg</a> <a href="http://s1156.photobucket.com/user/desktopalias1/media/IMG_4522_zps2f0b4b48.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p563/desktopalias1/IMG_4522_zps2f0b4b48.jpg</a> Off topic here. About your rifle set up. I live in good ole PA and looking at what is being made into law up there just infuriates me. I mean how in gods name does basically trimming off 2 inches of a pistol grip make any rifle less of a threat. Looking at it I am forced to imagine the type of moron that believes in this type of law, creates it and/or supports it. Sorry off topic...back on topic... Here's a really awful i4 pic, there's a 14" CMR in there somewhere....

The definition of a pistol grip under NYS law states that it's a grip that protrudes conspicuously below the action of the rifle and allows a pistol style grasp... I eliminated the "deadly pistol style grip" and other "deadly military" features so it no longer is an Assault Weapon under New York states bogus law and no longer needs to be registered but can still be taken to the range and/or sold as a normal rifle. Gotta love smart politicians. They really know their stuff! It's getting to be about time I leave this state. New York City and Albany ruin it for the rest of us.... |

Any word on rail panels to fit the 14in rail properly? My OCD is gonna force me to redrill so the holes line up :3
Also, spikes tactical micro gas block fits perfectly. 
Feel bad going full rail panel though....im covering up all the gorgeous. |

Does anyone have the OD rail panels on? I'm about to order them and wondered what they looked like first.

I believe he mentioned on Facebook that is a 12.5" barrel with an 11" handguard.

Any idea if they are planning in doing a half sized version of the rail cover?

There's even guide marks on the back of each panel for this purpose. If you want them to be half the width, just get some KAC URX 3 panels. You'll also have to get some 8-32 threaded screws, but otherwise they have the right hole spacing.

The new 9.5" versions I could fit a half sized one on it for more coverage, but not another full length one that takes 2 screws. I can take a picture tonight if that doesn't make sense |

Like I said before, there are little guide indentations on the back just for this purpose. |

I received my 9.5" and 11" CMRs yesterday and I love them. Three sets of covers (3-3pks) will cover both the 9.5" and 11" completely with spots for handstops and Scout light mounts.
And I may be wierd, but I love the look of the rail covers don't line up. I prefer they don't and cut my covers accordingly. |

From what i can see, the 14" CMR is the only version where the holes are off. How are you cutting the covers to get the look? |

It is the same on the 14" I have. The bottom has one hole closer towards the shooter than the side holes do. What I do is put the handstop where it works for me depending on the handguard length, and then I install the covers and the end closest to the shooter. I then work my way forward until I run into other accessories and trim accordingly. |
