What's the best price an nt4 can be had for? They are still up there right?

True, they're expensive... but with RCs showing up at $1,600, they may actually become the less expensive clone correct option eventually, heh.
If the choice is between an RC at $700 and an NT4 at $1,350, it's pretty easy to go with the RC - when it starts becoming an RC or even RC2 at $900-$1100, plus a 4 prong at $300, things become a lot more cloudy. |

Do they work, yes. But strikes, erosion, build up etc just turn me off. Are there any issues with the nt4? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Originally Posted By UndrGrndPrdcts:

Originally Posted By krdt: I will just tell you flat out that's nonsense. The RC is extremely well made - tough, low back pressure, little gas leakage and one of the best mounting systems out there. I don't think erosion is any different than any other can made with similar materials - it's just that RCs tend to be used on short barrels with prong flash hiders and have been well documented with pictures. People also mistake cosmetic erosion with actual damaging erosion. In reality, the RC has a quite thick Inconel blast baffle - I'd estimate it's twice as thick as the NT4 blast baffle. Naturally, some of the baffle thickness is offset by the 4 prong causing more targeted erosion, but if you used an SFCT to be comparable to the M4QD, I wouldn't be surprised if an RC could last as long as an NT4, maybe even longer due to the thicker baffle. If not, the RC has the huge added benefit of being able to be rebuilt. The RC does have a tighter bore than the NT4 and the occasional baffle kiss happens, but it's usually entirely cosmetic. I don't hear of many RCs needing to rebuilt because of a legitimate strike. As far as carbon buildup, the shape of the NT4 baffles actually lends itself to faster accumulation (and my limited testing backs this up - the NT4 was accumulating weight quite fast). You can see why it'd pick up weight below: http://wkd.site.nfoservers.com/CQBR/knights.carbon.buildup.png I would say in a purely pragmatic comparison, the RC is probably superior to the NT4 in many ways (better mount, less gas leakage, less back pressure, lighter, etc.). But they are both very well built, tough cans. View Quote |

Would I be banished from the clone community if I just got a Turbo K and sprayed it FDE?

Which 45 degree Surefire Scout mount will work with the ATPIAL? Thinking about ditching my Unity Tactical micro hub.
