2 questions
1. If you get the barrel part number 07-077-07308 direct from DD, or anywhere else does it come pinned? Can you request it be pinned if from DD? 2. When attaching the older style magpul AFG2 how are guys downrange actually attaching it to the mk16? The provided 7 slot rails are much smaller than the afg, so it doesn't get a good bite, magpul sells an mlock section specifically for the afg2 but its polymer. |

When ordered from Daniel Defense with the low profile gas block the gas block will be pinned. The specific gas block does not utilize set screws, pinning it is the only method of attachment. 2. No idea, I’d probably use the AFG specific MLOK rail or get an MLOK AFG. |

But the pin is not driven in hard. You can easily remove it and then the gas block in order to install your barrel nut, reinstall and then drive in the rest of the way. Its the easiest and most convenient gas block installation possible. |

There is 1 left on optics planet, just picked one up. If you buy it on your phone on the mobile version of the site it's slightly cheaper for some reason was 348 shipped |

Tried skimming through this 170+ page thread so forgive me if this has already been asked. Are there any issues or reasons I should stay away from the Geissele near clone, URGI sku: 08-159?
I don't care if it's clone correct but I do care if there's a performance difference between the geissele gas black vs the Daniel defense one. Has Geissele addressed the clearance issue on the URGI with their gas block? Thinking about picking one up on Opticsplanet and noticed there are two options. I'm assuming one is with the geissele gas block (Opticsplanet UPC:817953025215 MPN: 08-159) and the more expensive one is with the DD Optics Planet (UPC:817953025130 MPN: 05-858)? Thanks! |

View Quote I wasn't overly stressed about the clearance thing but between hating gov profile barrels and not giving an f about cloneisms, I just grabbed the rail and had it built around a BCM ELW barrel and SLR-7 micro GB since that seemed like one of the smallest ones available. Super happy with it though now I would have put a Criterion Core in it. |

The fact that the thing is 17-4 steel and nitrided, plus the raised rib on the ends, is a recipe for damage if it strikes the inside of the rail, such as what appears to happen in that video. I believe they may have quietly made changes to their rail to prevent distortion of the picatinny rail if the rail gets damaged. you can see these changes if you look closely. This is all speculation tho. They never publicly addressed this issue, but they are aware of it. |

It is possible that the change was unintentional. Maybe the extrusion was remade? It is also possible that person doesn't know about the modification. Here is what a typical corner stress concentration curve looks like (I just pulled this off web, these are material specific) but in general, a factor of 1.5 or less is considered acceptable. All recent rails I've seen, consistently have that fillet radius of around ~ 0.0900- 0.0850". Also the thickness on each side of the picatinny is about 0.0850" This gives an R/T of around 1 which for most materials would be comfortably inside the concentration factor of 1.5, meaning the maximum corner stress is no greater than 1.5 times the average stress in the material. Note: with no radius or a really small radius this factor goes toward infinity, which gives you bendy boi. Maybe they just changed extrusion dies or some other mistake or coincidence.

As Vapor-Trail pointed out, it’s the radius on the top rail that was a concern raised during “railgate”. That’s the apparent difference between the original rails and the supposedly newer revs. |

For what it's worth, this is the response I got back the other day (last week):
"Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in our products. When the URG-I first came out some of the MK12 gas blocks did make contact with the rails so we began to modify them in house for clearance and then the modified MK12 became standard. For the near clones, we use our Geissele low profile gas block which has been reduced in size as well from the first generations of gas blocks. Although Gas blocks can be self-sealing after it builds up some carbon we also use a sealant when installing them as well to prevent any leakages." |

So Eotech and Elcan. Aimpoint M4s from big Army also seem to be in use. LPVO’s seem to be unit or personal purchased. The Gen II Razor seems to be most popular. |

Interesting photo posted in the Glocks in the SF thread in the Handgun forum. Note the Cloud Defensive LCS and Streamlight HLX combo on the rifle on the right, for those of you that want to use that light option. I recognize the mountains, so it must be 10th Group.
