Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MONGO45: great info guys...! Ill grab a CA gas block.. It would fit on a LaRue barrel ok correct...? It will fit around the .750 gas journal, but the Larue barrel dimples won't line up with the Centurion set screws. The SLR GB7 micro, however, does line up. There's only two set screws on the SLR, whereas the Larue barrel has three dimples. The two screws align to the outer two dimples on the Larue barrel. This is your best bet for mounting a non-Larue gasblock to your barrel, while also fitting under a CMR rail. (I only know this because the SLR GB7 micro that now lives on a Ballistic Advantage barrel under my CMR rail used to live on a Larue 224 Valkyrie barrel under an equally tight fitting rail. Trust me... I put a ton of research into this.) |

Thanks. I knew that would be the answer and needed someone to confirm it. I'll get a gb when I get the rail.
Follow up question. What is the difference between a tabbed and nontabbed gasblock? Haven't run in to that terminology before. |

What is the difference between a tabbed and nontabbed gasblock? Haven't run in to that terminology before. Tabbed gasblocks are specific to Centurion barrels. They have a pocket the tab indexes in so that they time correctly and lock up very solid. If you aren't using a Centurion barrel that has the pocket for the tab then you will want their non tabbed gasblock. |

Tabbed means there is a tab/notch on the gas block that aligns with a relief cut in the barrel to assure alignment and reduce chance of coming loose. |

I just picked up a new 13” (13.64”) cmr MLOK.
Its going on a Noveske marked Vltor MUR upper. That upper is a little on the thick side directly behind the barrel nut. As is the case, the 2 anti-rotation tabs on the back of the rail hit on the upper and wont properly glove it. Took me a week just to source both of those parts and dont really want to find another one. Inletting on the receiver is out. Last option is to file off the tabs on the rail. Im thinking by applying some loctite on the smooth side of the barrel nut between it and the rail would help prevent any rotation. Anyone run into this? |

Just recently put a 7.62 rail on my aero m5 upper. No go
I just slowly filed and test fitted till it fit snug.. First centurion rail other then a quad...not impressed by this part..a plastic piece...come on...I would of rather have tabs off the rail that I would of filed.. |

I’m thinking about CMR to finish an OEM-2 6920.
Have a question about anti-rotation. I see they have a little tab on each side that straddles the receiver, but some have an additional part. Is that something only on Centurion built uppers, or is it a running change?

So someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that is their older style CMR rail with the 3 clamping screws. I just got a new MLOK rail. It does not have that little piece by the gas tube. But, It does have the little anti-rotation ears that extend back onto the receiver. Unfortunately they hit on mine (Noveske vltor MUR) so thats kind of a pisser offer.
I’m still debating to file those off or not......Maybe putting loctite on the outside of the barrel nut and inside of the rail will ensure no rotation. Its either that or wait forever and a year for a stripped gen3 upper, or wait forever and a day for a NSR rail...... |

That might be true about them on the Oder ones.
Just noticed poking at centurion site, the 762 rail is about the only one with this setup. |

 Just got my new Colt LE6920-EPR CK Enhanced Patrol Rifle Conversion Kit complete upper half, got it a really good discount during last Labor Day sale from a large online seller. It came with the latest Centurion production 13.5 inch handguard with current two bolt mounting and black markings, I replaced it with a 15 inch same current model that I got last February. I moved all my BUIS and red dot from my older 2019 EPR CK with 13.5 CMR, Magpul MBUS Pro, Magpul angled grip type and BCM M-LOK rail panels. My lower half is an older Colt LE6920 marked "M4 CARBINE" with Colt ambi selector, Magpul MOE K-2 grip and B5 Systems Enhanced SOPMOD FDE stock. |

Too bad because the mlok rails aren’t nearly as cool. I guess they’re ok if you need one that takes a traditional barrel nut. |

 Same carbine I posted on 9/30/2021 except changed the handguard rail cover with Magpul M-LOK FDE covers (X 8) and changed the RDS to same brand Vortex but newer gen 2 Sparc AR with exclusive tan finish and cover. Also forgot to mention Arisaka front finger stop, BCM GunFighter KAG FDE angled grip, Geissele G2S two stage trigger and Geissele Airborne DDC charging handle.  Picture before the latest change with BCM M-LOK FDE side rail panels and mounted my Surefire Scout M600U weaponlight with Haley Strategic/ IWC M-LOK Thorntail6 offset Scout mount. |

 On top my new Colt model CR6960 factory midlength gas system 16 inch barrel carbine, shown installed a Centurion Arms ML1513 13.5 inch taken off from my 2021 Colt CR6920-EPR CK M4 carbine conversion kit upper half I got last year. I modified my CR6960 midlength carbine with Magpul panel covers and angled fore grip, Scalarworks Peak fixed front sight, Knight's Armament Micro 200-600m folding rear sight, Geissele ambi selector, Geissele Super charging handle, B5 Systems grip, B5 Bravo SOPMOD stock, Blue Force Gear Vickers 2 point sling and Magpul PMAG gen 3 windows. The new Colt CR6960 midlength comes from the factory with the Centurion OEM model handguard with less vent holes and no QD sling mounts, see picture below. Carbine at bottom, is my same Colt SP6920 marked "Sporter M4 Carbine" lower with Colt LE6920-EPR CK (2019) conversion kit upper half, same carbine as above picture, except now with new Aimpoint Duty RDS.  My new Colt CR6960 midlength carbine factory configuration with Centurion OEM current model handguard with two mounting fasteners and black markings, I bought it last month in April. I'm going to use this OEM handguard on my other 9mm AR carbine. |

Bumping this old thread to see if anyone has any fitment information!
Im looking at the 15" Centurions arms 762 rail with a +2 rifle gas systems and a Seekins Select AGB, the rail should only overlap the gas block by maybe a .25". But I am wondering if anyone has tested this gas block to see if the rear portion with fit under the 762 rail.

The Zev rail does add a nice aesthetic to the upper. |

I guess I'll have to save up and find an 18" Criterion CL rifle gas (that's actually in stock) and have it chopped to 16". |

The pic above was taken on the 100 yard range during the test fire and zero process, and once that was complete I was able to go to the bay next to it and shoot steel out to 600 yards. |
