    Correct me if I'm wrong but a DD midlength should be right at .0760 for gas port size.

    Clearly, Vltor did a shitload of homework on this system....as it just fuggin works.
    Agreed. Been loving the -4

    For what it's worth, this testing was done at unreasonable hours of the night. Sleep deprivation could have influenced those involved.

    Yeah, the standard distance for the VTAC 1-5 is 5 meters. He's got another vid at 25 though.
