The Ultimak is lighter than the original gas tube. I don't think it would even be noticeable.

I think it would look a lot more slick. Anyone have a link to the original ultimaks that were like this? I have my micro dot pushed all way to the back...never use the forward portion of the rail.

The alloy used to make the ultimak is so light that your weight savings would be unnoticed. I would guess a half ounce or less.

You could use a belt sander, a Dremel sanding wheel or a hand sander. Just be careful to not remove too much.
