| I have a bushmaster 20" HBar that I am planning on sending to AR15barrels for a full de-HBar. So I have removed the handguards, gas tube, sightbase and removed the barrel from the upper. I wanted to have the barrel turned down to a mid weight profile, shortened to 18” and have a muzzle device permanently installed, my question is this: how will I put my sight base back on with a muzzle device permanently installed? |

Here in MA we still have a AWB. I may be wrong but a 'compensator' is ok while a 'flash hider' or 'threaded muzzle' is not. Regardless of barrel length the muzzle device must be permanently attached to make the threaded muzzle feature useless. Feel free to correct me on this one. |

Wow, that sucks. SO, your options are: Muzzle device installed by the shop turning down your barrel. FSB installed by them also. Purchase a clamp on, such as the kind sold by Armalite Purchase a complete barrel assembly from AR15Barrels, and sell your existing on EE to offset the cost. ![]() www.armalite.com/sales/catalog/components/barrelcomponents.htm Front Sight Base, Picatinny Gas Block M15A4(T), SST EA1154KIT $49.00 Picatinny Rail M15A4, Moly EU0236KIT $42.00 M15A4, SST EU0237KIT $49.00 AR-10(T), SST EA1154KIT $49.00 AR-10A4, Moly EA1151KIT $42.00 AR-10A4, SST EA1153KIT $49.00 |
