LaRue Handguard Gas Block Question...

[smac61]

I have a LaRue LT15-11 on the way and have a question about gas block clearance. The research I've done so far suggests the Vltor or DD clamp on gas blocks fit under the rail, however the rail cannot be passed over the block so it has to be installed after.

For anyone thats been down this path, is there any particular reason you couldn't open up the cutout in the rear of the handguard just enough to clear?

I know I can use a set screw version or simply cut down my A2, but I would rather do a clamp on if at all possible.

Thanks...

To all concerned.

The custom build area is a place to show off/discuss and ask questions and get feedback about your completed custom build (this means a completed AR that is functional and already completed). If you are going to post pictures of your build, please post a complete picture not just your parts, partial lowers, etc....

Also, buying an upper separate and then a lower and throwing them together does not constitute a custom build. It would be nice if you took time to explain how you came to your decision and explain your set up. Thanks.

If you do not follow the guidelines and your post disappears it's probably because it was moved to the trash or deleted.
