BA barrel and Badger gas block...not a match made in heaven

Unless there’s a magic secret, guess it’s time for a new barrel or GB. I put a generic .750 GB on and it went on like butter, but the Badger and PRI FSB barely made it past the step up. Tried it on the BA 16" Mod-H barrel and same result as well

Drill a 3/4" hole in a 2x4, oil the barrel, and beat it on.

The mount is old and kinda crap (relies on shims and can be really finicky moving between multiple rifles without manual adjustment). The focus ring is really far out there and hard to manipulate, especially from a firing position. Because of it's length, you can not run the front BUIS on the Mod 1. I had both compact scopes on the Mod 1 and Holland so I can't say for sure, but I'm pretty sure if you're running the 3.5-10 the 30 might not even fit, or if it does it'll be on the very last rail section and having off the end of the gun quite a bit. The PVS-30 really shines when you're shooting 500-1000yds — which is not what most people do with their Mk 12s at night IME. If you're primarily going to be shooting at that distance, and probably using a rifle/caliber more tuned for that distance, there's no better deal out there right now than one of the refurb units.

The PVS-22 on the other hand is a tiny little unit, super light (feels less than 1/2 or 1/3 of the 30), really compact and is a phenomenal clip-on for shots out to 500yds with the right glass. The focus knob is much easier to reach and easier to manipulate (doesn't require as much leverage and easy to do with one finger). It fits on any Mk 12 and most AR15 builds. Most Mk 12 clones are using old, clone glass, so in that case somewhere around 400 or 450yd is more reasonable. But if you've got some really nice, modern glass behind it it'd probably be just fine for out to 600 or so.

For me, when I go shoot at night, 80% of stuff ends up being a combo of sentinels + laser or passive through an EOTech. Then for that last 20% it's really fun to have a clip on for longer stuff, both target shooting at and hunting. And I just don't really ever go out and shoot at night past 500yds. It's fun to have the capability to do so, but just never ended up happening. I sold the 30 and kept the 22. If you have something like a Mk 13 or a M110, the 30 is really really nice. But for a Mk 12, really not a fan compared to other options.

They're not as readily available but if you look around you can definitely find a good 22 for around the same price as the refurb 30s.

Quite a few have. I know @tinycrumb and @ecprevatte both have them. There are a couple more that I can't think of. I think a PVS-30 will be my next NV purchase.

Edit: tinycrumb might have the PVS-22... I don't recall.

Tiny, thanks for answering, the original goal was to get a pvs-22, picked up a peq-2a a while ago already. Unfortunately as much as I looked there wasn't that many units for sale and the prices were usually more than the 4800 price for the pvs-30. I know the pvs-30 is a beast, weight and size wise but from everything I've heard its an awful lot of bang for the buck. As for engagement distances was hoping for the 3-800 range. Perhaps I should ask around some of the forums and see if anyone local to me has a pvs-22 so I can try to compare the two. Thanks again for answering up Marty

I would think the tighter the better on the other side.  Worst case heat the gas block up a bit to get it on.

If I remember, badger blocks are all really tight.  Steel will win vs wood, you won't hurt anything.

Throw the barrel in the freezer overnight. Toss gas block in oven at 250-300. Have some "persuasion" available when you're ready to assemble.

Got around to taking my Mod 1 to an indoor range to sight in the irons plus my 14.5” today with a buddy of mine. I thought my 14.5” middy was a tame shooter. But holy fucking balls that Mod 1 is smooth. New favorite rifle. If it wasn’t so long and ungainly, I’d slap my Aimpoint on it and keep it next to the bed. Can’t wait to get some good weather and sight in the scope and stretch it legs. Also, cut the phone in my Seahorse case for my Mod 1.

Freeze the barrel, heat the gas block (in oven or with heat gun; low-temp torch will also work but just keep the temp LOW).  Old AK building trick from 15 years ago.

I sent mine back to BA.  It was oversized in a couple of places at the journals.  My gas block is the NSN Daniel Defense model.  I tried everything.  Freezing the barrel and MAPP gas torch on the block.  Would not fit.  That's when I measured the barrel with a micrometer.

Not surprised to hear BA is taking care of you. I used the Badger Ordanance Gas block on my Mod 1 and it was a tight fit but no heating and cooling was required. It was like a match made in heaven.

Also, I know I asked this before but I can’t find It, was there a specific weapon light used on the Mod 1 along with the Peq-2(?). I’d really love to add a light for no reason other than to have one lol

Whatever was available through the SOPMOD kit, or whatever was available via supply, unit purchase, or bought from the PX.

So some sort of Surefire, earlier on likely a 951 or 961 type deal, maybe 962?

A propane torch and some tongs is all you need; hell you can probably just use the gas tube itself to position the block - the heat transfer isn't quick enough that it'll burn you.  Just make damn sure you position the gas block where you want it in about 20 seconds or so.  If it takes you longer than this to turn a set screw ~1 turn, you should not be the one doing the job.  So you can do the job in 30 seconds using a torch or spend 5 hours with the chilled barrel BS... mess up on the latter and you'll be waiting a few more hours to chill the barrel again (and really the dimension change between 60-70 deg F and 20 deg F is nearly nothing on steel).  What you really want to avoid is a torch on a match barrel itself - this only becomes an issue if you want to remove the gas block later.

Heating and cooling press-fit metal components isn't exactly just an AK building trick.

When journals are tight like that and you need to remove that hair. Make a flappping tool and flap the internal journal. Be careful and practice.

Works great until it catches something, rips the grinder out of your hand and bends the tool. Then you gotta go make another one.

Get on their email list.

ETA:  No link at the moment, as posted above the sale is Wednesday for Talk Like A Pirate Day.  So they're not totally stuffy at WOA at least, that's good to know.  

Got in on the Brownell's 10%/free ship ($99+) with a Badger gas block, a YHM gas block for another build, and 2 rifle gas tubes (future 6.5C will be rifle gas so might as well grab it now while I'm thinking about it).

Gives me the chance to at least get the KAC FF RAS fully installed on the mod 1 upper, since the collar and brake can be installed with the handguard in place.

A step in the right direction.  Still many more steps to go.

Do your best pirate voice, call them, and ask if you could get a little applied to one of their 16" midgas match barrels with Ops 12th contour. Worst case they say no, and you can tell them the Mod H actually is on the handsheets still as SPR in certain armories.

White Oak SPR Sale
I'm not seeing a 16" spr profile mod h barrel
Do your best pirate voice, call them, and ask if you could get a little applied to one of their 16" midgas match barrels with Ops 12th contour. Worst case they say no, and you can tell them the Mod H actually is on the handsheets still as SPR in certain armories.
Lol that would be hilarious to call them talking like a pirate tomorrow

I’d love to have a CL criterion, or another Quality CL barrel(like a colt hbar)turned for a mod h ops profile. I inquired with CLE about this and they won’t turn CL barrels. Wish I knew who did.

No worries.  I see Brownells has a 16" mid-gas CL criterion for about 250 with the military/C&R/FFL discount.....

Yea the hybrid profile looks like what I’m going to do, then get adco to turn it.  I’ll have $400 in a CL barrel but it should be accurate enough and outlast me

They have the drawings from when they made my batch.  (not that it's a hard thing to figure out)  If I remember right, I shared with PRI and WOA in the hopes of getting a clone correct H mass produced.

Most of my Mod 1 has arrived.  Waiting on the mounts and the brake/collar.  Torn on using my KAC BC or just reusing the colt one with the new bolt.

I have the sights in a drawer somewhere.   I am hoping to get to shoot this before I leave this week to go back to Iraq but its gonna be tight.   My ticket is a day earlier than I thought it was.
