9 hole reviews BHD clone video. (uses OPS / AE can)

I haven't finished the video yet but I've been putting off building an upper like this.  

Any leads on a barrel that will work? I'd even be open to a complete upper.  I have been waiting for the 12.5" barrel w/ FSB to come back in stock and am getting impatient, lol .  

I have an OPS 16th model and AEM5 I could use....would probably end up getting a dedicated can eventually.

I noticed you have a .22 conversion going on there. Do you drop your can into an ultrasonic cleaner or something to get the gunk out?

I havent yet. I only have maybe 100rnds throught it with subsonic lead one and a few copper plated ones. I try and not dump 22lr through it.

Eventually ill get an ultrasonic for it, but this is mainly a 223 can and i always shoot 223 after any 22

It's not a clone, but took inspiration from the BHD movie gun using some newer parts. I used the 12.5" SS barrel and 2-piece collar that Ron sold last year. SUPER fun to shoot.

I don’t think AEM5 and 11.5 is possible. Not enough room. I’m sure it was discussed a while back somewhere but a Spikes tapered gas block gives you the best chance on the shortest barrel.

A 12.3” barrel with a midlength gas port will barely fit an AEM4 with a Spike’s GB and get the optimal amount of turns for mounting the suppressor.

I don’t think it will work with an AEM5.

Question:

Just got my AEM5 out of Jail. Hurray

So, I have a 12.5" barrel and an MK12 collar. There is no step for the collar, but to get 8.5 turns on my suppressor that leaves about 1.5" gap between my collar and my gas block. I was thinking of running some pvc pipe to fill that gap so my collar doesn't slip down when tightening the suppressor. This way, my collar would essentially be backed up against my gas block ensuring that it doesn't slip. My collar is tightly fitted to my barrel. I used metal Feeler Guages to get rid of any looseness and made sure there were no gaps.

Theoretically, could this setup be run?

In my opinion, the words PVC pipe and suppressor mount probably don’t belong in the same sentence. Avoid the risk of making a costly and, more importantly, time consuming mistake.

I’m sure Ron will be along soon to offer some options.

Which barrel do you have? Most guys who have done the 12.5 used the M4 to AEM5 collar which indexes off the small shelf near the muzzle that’s found on M4 profile barrels (not the 203 cutout)

ETA: And absolutely listen to goloud. You don’t want to be trying to make your own suppressor mount fixes.

Nice barrel and it looks like it has the profile to use the M4/AEM5 collar. I think you'll have to get in touch with Ron and give him some dimensions.

Didn't think about taking pics until I was in the middle of cleaning...just wanted to share. I have a handful of ops / AE cans (and would really like two more aem5s or a 12th model).  And the thought of building a BHD psuedo clone made me think of it.

This 12.5" AR upper was my first SBR. Approved Oct 2009. DD barrel w/ FSB. 16th model was approved Mar 2010

This brake has seen at least 5000-8000 rounds of ammo. There were days my friends and I would bump 1k through it. So I have no doubt the round count may be higher. 99% of the time it has had the Ops 16th model on it.  It's been red hot, its had 22lr through it (ceiner kit), it has been nicked, etc.  The 16th model now weighs 1lb 5.7oz. Which isnt too bad since I guess it started out at 19oz.

Could probably use a little scraping but I'm sure itll be fine.

Thanks Ron for making a great product that has lasted (me at least) over a decade.

Where is the best place to buy the Ops brake and m4 collar?  New, retail.  Please don't say Charlie.  

Does it matter what's under any suppressor (especially AEM5)?  Does it matter if it's a brake or FH?

ADCO
DSG
Capital Armory

M4 Collar is no longer off the shelf, you'll need to contact Ron.

Steve from Adco has stated multiple times the FH reduces accuracy when compared to the brake.  I've never observed this myself, at least no worse than what I could chalk up to a bad day at the range (too much caffeine).

I wound up buying mine from ADCO. I dont know if they currently have any at the moment.

Capitol Armory has been OOS for a long time now.  Esilencers also carries the AEM5 and the mount.  See if they have any at the moment.

I know this question has been asked a million times so I apologize in advance but I can never remember what’s what. Should I use a crush washer or shims to time the brake?

My brake times up to about 930 hand tightened with the crush washer. I know you don’t want to over torque. Is this acceptable or should I just use the shims that came with?

Thanks all!

ETA: Whats the proper torque for the AEMB?

Sometimes a combination of crush washer and shims are needed. I shoot for about 11 o’clock to get to 12 o’clock timing of the thinner spline with a crush washer. Slightly precrushing a crush washer in a vice can be helpful.

Torque is somewhat relative, but an 11 o’clock start should get approximately 20 ft-lbs or so, and don’t forget a dab of green or blue Loctite with clean threads on both the barrel and brake.

You don’t want to over torque, not just for accuracy reasons, but the splines can deform and then you’re SOL.

There were crush washers of recent that didn’t crush evenly.

Careful with only shims, you do not want the barrel protruding in the muzzle brake port.  This should be obvious and does not look correct at all.

In the newer brake and collar sets there should be a thicker shim that takes the place of the crushed washer. Add the thinner shims as needed to get the appropriate timing.

Thoughts on getting this barrel for my BHD lookalike?

Centurion 12.5 lightweight

This is one of the few places I've been able to find that will install a FSB for you.

Would require a custom collar for my aem5. The site says "Lightweight profile is Government profile under the handguard and step down to .680 ahead of the .750 gas journal."

I'm between this, cutting down a 14.5" m4 profile barrel, or finding another 12.5" barrel and getting a FSB installed on it.

Also, finally got a rifle for my AE30 and just got the rifle back from profiling. Will get a pic today.

I don't think the barrel diameters matter too much if you are calling Ron for the collar, he will do whatever measurements you provide.  

Do you know if Centurion has the FSB's for a1 or a2 uppers or only flat top?  That looks like a good option to ensure the FSB is aligned correctly, and get a bad ass barrel that will last most forever.

In the newer brake and collar sets there should be a thicker shim that takes the place of the crushed washer. Add the thinner shims as needed to get the appropriate timing.


I got my brake and collar from Centurion, it only came with a crush washer.  I used an A2 fh to crush it down just to the point where I could 1/4" turn the brake for timing with rocksett.

I dont know which FSB they use but I'm going to use an A2 upper for my build.

Remington 700 in .308, purchased from a user here.
Had the barrel profiled by Jason from Accurate Ordnance (I wish they were still open)



With the provided thread protector.


With Armageddon Gear cover.

Damn that is slick. A bolt gun profiles for an AEM5 or AEM5-30 is on my list.

Is there any recommendation for using an anti-seize on the muzzle brake outer threads?

I had an issue with another suppressor (not my Ops) recently and it got me thinking.

I have some Aeroshell left over from my last AR build.
