to install a LaRue rail.
Gets REAL interesting at 3:30 or so. I guess with enough lock tight all things are possible. |

Between the tats, the shirt, and the SEAL poster, he's obviously Tier-1. Maybe you guys could learn a few things from him.

What a joke. Left out parts, didn't bridge the receiver and rail to insure line up. No strap wrench to tighten rail collar. would have been interesting if he broke the barrel indexing pin putting the flash hider on.

Haha that was the best 20 minutes I have seen in a while.
At least read the instructions and don't leave parts out. I like the part about putting loctite under the gas block for accuracy |

A couple other thoughts come to mind...
. o O ( I dunno about others here, but if I'm going to give myself a handle like that, I'm damned sure not going to put up a how-to video about putting an upper together where I leave parts out, don't use all the right tools, and at LEAST edit out the "ruh-roh" moments... ) . o O ( OPERATOR headspace and timing issue... ) . o O ( I guess if "common sense" was really as common as people think it is, more people would actually have some of it... ) SIDE NOTE: Brother cormorantslayer, I wanted to thank you again, publicly, for the parts and advice you hooked me up with for my lower build. I really like the crispness of the trigger! |

I had to stop watching, the stupid was starting to hurt.
Meta tip, when shooting a tech process video, and you screw up, start over.
Maybe mfinger and I should make some industrial films for larue,
so that Leroy is not inspired to fill the youtube void with his quality efforts. |

So he leaves out the anti-rotational plate and screws. At the end has no BUIS and a budget looking optic, but hey at least he has a $300 rail.

against my better judgment I watched it:
really most of the issues were with him never installing an LT rail before - pinching the rail collar, forgetting the keeper, etc had he redone the video it wouldn't have been an issue. he asked for constructive criticism and said he wasn't an expert. some of you guys are pretty harsh, and I can be a fucking prick. my only issues were: - using that style block for a FH install (though i've done it) - not properly torquing the barrel nut - recommending anti-sieze / white lithium grease i've never heard of bedding a gas block with blue loctite for "accuracy", but if it makes you sleep well at night, so be it |

That makes more sense theoretically, but the problem I have is in actually achieving what youre setting out to do. Even if you dont put any locktite in the gas port, and only around it, you still may be pushing it into the gas port when you slide the gas block on (as you saw with his demonstration, all the extra that was pushed out once the gas block was aligned). So unless you dont put any locktite forward of the gas port so this wont happen, youre essentially not getting the "gas seal" you wanted in the first place... |
