Thanks @Raptor83.

I love it on that particular upper. For HD close quarters, it's perfect. The CAR stock makes it difficult to get a good cheek weld while ADS, but I wanted this one to have shortest possible OAL and maneuverability. If I was going to use it for shooting 100 yards and beyond, the SOPMOD provides a more comfortable shooting position.

Thanks for the insight! Running a sopmod on mine so that’ll help.

Is it a USMC thing? All the ones I've ever gotten from the Army didn't have pockets. I still wear mine occasionally but wished it had pockets.

I'm betting on "close" and the bottom of the Badger Gas block will need to be milled for clearance.

I used a Badger on my Mk12 Mod1 way back in the day and the tolerances on that bitch were so tight, I had to sand the finish off my barrel to get it to seat. Nice block but fitment could be a real issue.

I've been using CMMG micro blocks on several of my latest builds and they're awesome. No branding marks, just a micro-sized block; perfect.

I lucked up on this one, it slides right on. I’m just worried about whether or not the rail itself will clear the dimensions of the gas block or not. I heard the URX3 and 3.1s are tight.

Anyone use an H3 with this system? I'm kinda disappointed to find out this is already over gassed and will be worse with a suppressor on it.

It took me longer than I wanted to follow up to this post, but I wanted good data and rounds down range before I posted the findings.

So I waited about 500 rounds before torture testing the rifle with heavier spring/buffer combos. No fresh lube, no cleaning, and old dirty suppressor ammo saved specifically to torture test. Ammo was a mix of high pressure IMI, Wolf Gold and PMC Bronze, in all various stages of filth and debris.

I wanted to find the edge of reliability without a suppressor for this rifle. Here are my findings on a 1 of 1 non-scientific test.

H3+blue spring = not reliable at least 25% of the time
H3+carbine spring = about 1 failure every three mags. This got worse as lube started to dry up.
H2+blue spring = about 1 failure every three mags. Also, saw about the same stoppage rate with fresh IMI 5.56 and dirty/dry gun.
H2+carbine spring (factory setup)= runs like a champ no failures. This combo was used at the end of the test when the gun was at the most dirty/dry point.

So in conclusion - Even though I feel it is slightly over-gassed relative to my other .070 gas port sbr barrels, Knights got the formula correct from the get go.

Now it's time to throw the suppressor on it and zero it for HD use.
