Sometimes I miss the ACE, sometimes not. it was craptastic and always shot loose.....but I did put like 2500rnds through my H from 2015-2019. Looks so good man. dont sell it. I'm curious about your shifting zero... The recce rail clamps up like a mofo on the upper, I'm surprised you had this issue. Do you think your hand guard might have been loose? |

How many threads you reckon you trimmed off the screw? Curious how much it was pressing on the block. |

I'm about to pull the rail on mine so I'll take a look at the top of the GB. I've only got about a hundred rounds through my H so far though. But will look for any black eyes it may have. Given the number of revisions PRI has made to this handguard since it's inception, maybe this will give them an excuse to make a gen 4 tube.

Not really, but maybe  Did I get it from you? I got it from someone here back in spring. I like it, but lately been thinking of going to either a TA31 with the RMR or maybe sell both and just a Kahles 1-6 up top. I've had an NX8 and wasn't enthralled. |

That’s quite strange that a solid set up gave you zero shift.

Any of you run an offset mrds on your H, and if so, what configurations have you tried and liked?
I snagged a Docter piggy back ring mount and also an AMS extended offset mount with the protective wing mount. Am gonna play with both this weekend at the range. Curious what others have tried. Just mounted the AMS to have it ready for the weekend. Obviously one mount will be going back in the parts bin but have both on currently just to try them out. I like the offset in some ways but like the top/piggy back moreso, but haven't shot with either yet so that may change. That said, if I had a Predator mount I wouldn't even be posting this, other than posting a pic of celebration  Attached File |

I’m looking at doing a lighter build somewhat inspired by the MK12-0 and I have a few questions about the PRI handguards. First, regarding the Gen 2 vs Gen 3, does anyone have an actual, measured weight on each? The mfr website lists each at 1.03 pounds or 16.5oz all up. Is this accurate, including barrel nuts and included rails?
Second, cloning requirements aside, what are the pluses and minuses of the Gen 2 vs Gen 3? Thanks, I was unable to find any real info on this. |

Citristrip turns Kryon and Rustoleum into its bitch and you'll never notice it was once painted. I stripped a scope I bought off of a friend and all I did was run water over it after it sat for a little bit. The stuff in the corners just rubbed off with my fingers. |

Yea I know I use it all the time, but right now I can say it's "unpainted" lol. I've been considering going to an atacr is why I haven't committed. If I decide not to then its getting sprayed. |
