[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Gas block size for Hbar

Posted: 2/14/2006 4:43:18 PM EDT

I need to fiind out the size of the barrel diameter under the gas block on the barrel of a Bushmaster Vmatch. Also, could anyone that has one of these comment on its accuracy, is it just the normal Hbar? thanks.

That I don't know, I got the bbl. in trade from a friend. I would think it's the same, but you can use calipers to measure it.

Bushmaster V-Match uppers use the standard 0.750" gas block size.
The name "V-Match" is just Bushmaster's designation for any upper with their aluminum freefloat tube and a shaved down front sight forging.
Nothing special about them besides that.
They use the regular chrome lined 1:9 twist barrels.
