Hi folks.
Looking at the Midwest Industries G3 lightweight handguard in 10.5" .
Does a shaved A2 frontsight gasblok fit inside this rail?
According to the site the inside of the rail is 1.3"
Greetings
Stef.

The shaving may have to be aggressive but it will work. Usually taking the bottom corners off a bit more to suite the inner dimensions of the rail. MI's 3 screw lp block will cover the scar nicely and save some work.

The MI rails are super easy to instal and are great performers. I have about 10k on the 3 screw block and never has loosened, used red on the screws.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Realy like the looks of the ultra light weight and now one step further in my new configuration.
Again thanks a lot.

Stef.

Do NOT use red on the screws.  Blue is more than enough and you’ll curse him and thank me if you ever have to remove the forend.  I use MI rails on all my builds from 5.56 to .475 TREMOR.  Blue holds just fine.  Friends don’t let friends use red on firearms.
