I saw this thing on the Fulton Armory website. Who makes it? What's it made of? Anyone have one? If so do you like/hate it?

I've got one. in carbine length...rock solid, very thick metal. I can't imagine ever being able to damage this tube through abuse. The rails will accept anything I've tried to put on them. They're not light, though, if that's a consideration. I've got no complaints about mine whatsoever. At the time, the only competition it had was the FIRSH, everything else was a lot more expensive. FA is about 45 minutes from here, so I just drove on over and snagged one. BTW, the Yankee Hill wrench works great on the jam ring of the Liberator II. |

Then I'd check out the YHM lightweight...it's only about 7oz, iirc. I'm very happy with the YHM stuff I've gotten so far, and I may actually get that lightweight tube for the rifle that has the Lib. II on there, just to save a little weight myself. On the Lib II, the top rail lines up fine...but I didn't index it with that in mind, so the slots don't line up right...too big a gap between upper and tube...so that when I tried to move my ARMS #38 forward for shits and grins, I could only get one of the slot pieces back in. I could solve that problem by moving the tube forward and re-tightening the jam nut I suppose. Now, on my Yankee Hill tube, it seems to be just a hair higher than the flat top...so that could be an issue there. Once again, though, I didn't get the slots lined up, so I couldn't tell for sure....plus I had the Customizable tube, which is a round tube with places to mount various lenght rails on. Don't know if this will be an issue with the tubes with built in rails. |
