I really want to put the upper from this rifle onto a SCR.
Now if only I could actually find any information on who made it or how.
Apparently DOW arms made it, in 6.8 spc no less.

Check the link posted by CarpNY, on page 224 it shows the gas system. And it is a dissipator style. That being said it would be rather awesome if it was a piston, or even an adjustable DI system, but I wont complain about what it isn't when what it is is so awesome. |

Anyone know if the gas block on the factory SCR upper will fit a 0.750" journal? Given the lightweight profile of the barrel, I assume that it has a 0.625" journal. However, looking at the front, the gas block appears to have an inner sleeve, suggesting it could fit a 0.750" journal if that is removed:
I would like to use their sights on a particular build, but the barrel that I want to use has a 0.750" journal. |

I'f your concerned about weight at all then look for a lighter 1-4x. The 1-6x's are nice, but they are noticably larger and heavier than my 1-4's. |

Anyone know if the gas block on the factory SCR upper will fit a 0.750" journal? Given the lightweight profile of the barrel, I assume that it has a 0.625" journal. However, looking at the front, the gas block appears to have an inner sleeve, suggesting it could fit a 0.750" journal if that is removed: http://www.airsoft-military-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Ares-SCR-Sights2.jpg I would like to use their sights on a particular build, but the barrel that I want to use has a 0.750" journal. Still hoping for an answer on this (from ARES or otherwise; email not answered.) Can the factory gas block be made to fit a 0.750" journal by removing what appears to be an inner sleeve? I have a very specific build in mind, but it hinges on a barrel with the standard (not lightweight) journal size. |

What kind of brake/ flash hider/ forward blast device is that? Does it mostly direct the gas forward? Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By battleshipgrey:

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MRW:
It looks to me that the front sight clamps around a low profile gas block. And perhaps what you think is a sleeve is actually the gas block journal that is 0.750 and the barrel has a sharp step down forward of the gas block? Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MRW:

The front sight is definitely designed specifically to fit around their own low-pro gas block. Could be a sharp drop after the journal. Seems to align a little too perfectly, but then again, they designed the barrel for use with their own gas block. Guess I'll just call and ask on Monday. |

the design is growing me. the aesthetics of the 16" would be so much better with a middy gas system though
