I'll IM Todd and see if he can still honor ARFCOM coupon and refund the discount.

Is rail/upper lined up, the picatinny appears to be off?
Or is it a camera issue? |

I guess over all $212 (10" Solo) shipped for quality key-mod rail anent too bad. |

Ordered the 15" Solo 3G earlier this morning. I was able to put in the ARFCOM code & got $11.00 off my order. There was no tax, but there was shipping. I contacted Alfredo @ SLR about the lite weight 7075 nut as an option & he quickly responded on how to get it. So far, I'm very pleased. We'll see when the rail comes in.

Well...... how do you get the 7075 barrel nut ? Is it an additional cost ?

I put my request for the 7075 in caps in the comments section of my order. It shipped today so I'm hoping it worked...

Ordered a 15" Solo Lite. Alfredo and Tom did a great job taking care of me. Looking forward to getting it.
ETA: The 7075 nut doesn't cost extra. |

Ya, ask for the 7075 nut in the comment section when placing the order. No extra cost. I did hear from Alfredo today that they had a quality issue with the 7075 nuts. It may be a week or so until they have a new delivery to replace the F'ed up ones.

Wow! All versions of the 15" SOLO are out of stock already
...guess Todd and the SLR family will be busy, busy, busy real soon 
BTW, have one of the early model (no tension screw in clamp area) 13" SOLO HG's and I am loving it!! Compared to my 12" Intrepid, it's a much more comfortable hold for my hands. Good job Todd...now just can't wait to see the planned Certakoted offerings, any idea which colors will be offered first? |

Still hoping for a Solo Lite 14 or better yet, 14.5. I believe that most handguard manuafacturers have not tapped the market for those who want to add a KX5 style, or other semi-shrouded muzzle device to the popular 14.5 in barrel. |

Is it just the angle at which the picture is taken or does it not sit at the same height as the upper? Also what is the advantage to the aluminum nut? Just less weight? I'm ready to buy a 10" today. However I would really like an 11 inch. Any more thought on making an 11? |

I was wondering the same about the nut...and are they automatically going to ship us the new batch when its ready?
Just curious dtd, did your nut come separate in the package or already threaded into the rail? Easy way to figure out which one you got is to weigh it... I got my 9'' today and she sure is purdy

I know how to put rail together, but I don't know what To do with the set screw, which is in in between bottom 2 clamp bolt. Would a been nice if they included instruction with the rail. |

From earlier in the thread The Solo's now use a spreader screw(6-32) upon assembly to help not mar the finish on the barrel nuts and a a lock to the clamp bolts when assembled. 
It is the 7075 nuts for the 15" that the machinist screwed up. Those with nuts for the shorter versions should be fine. |

The brass tipped set screw is a spreader screw.. Back it out before tightening the clamp bolts.Then snug it up once the clamp bolts are set. It acts sort of like a lock to the clamp bolts.

I would be interested in picking one of these up.
I have a question though. What size barrels will the barrel nut accomodate? I have a larger, stainless bull barrel so it would need to fit over it. I guess an easier question to answer is: what is the internal diameter of the barrel nut? Thanks for your help! |

Got my 10" solo on satruday.
Pros: Super easy install. No special tools or proprietary tools. Fast shipping with tracking Free stickers (it's the little things, went on my garage fridge with others) Slimmer than it looks in pictures. Very comfortable. And LIGHT. Cons: Slightly lower (0.015") than my PSA upper* That's it, could only find one Con with this product. Now for the *. I have no need for an item to be mounted between the area of the upper and lower, so the fifteen thousandths isn't a big deal for me. may be for others. Pictures: 
SBR Goodness. on order are BUIS, lighter stock and Hogue grip.
