The plate is 5/8" wide so the odds are that it will hopefully line up with some ventilation hole/slot in brand 'x' rail system. Some rails you can barely get a bullet in there to get to the regulator and it is just a push. If now you had to also go forward, I am just concerned that the bullet would hit a 'hard stop' in the rail system where it would just happen to line up so you may not be able to push forward on the leg of the spring.
Again, this product has been out since October and I have yet to have anyone experience an unintended regulator plate shift. We purposely made the detent pin a little long to accommodate a longer detent groove in case that need did arise and it would just be a plate swap.
The block body is 416 stainless.
The regulator plate is 4130
The above material info is on the website but I put 41xx for the plate material because I had a feeling it would vary between 4130 and 4140 depending on our source but current production is 4130.
No problems on all the questions. Ask all you want.
Thank you very much.
I don't have any more questions, but if I do, they'll be in this thread so everybody can read them. And I do think they are relevent to the topic.
We miss you, AC.
We miss you, ToddG.
