    Yeah mine is fine on the top too. I am going to email Primary Arms and Mega Arms to try and find out what fits. I would buy the BCM one but until I get the dimensions I don't know if it's going to fit.

    I've had a lot of luck with the Troy blocks fitting just about everything.

    Have you any clue how much barrels whip? You need more room than close!

    Maybe it's better to go with ones that don't have double connections then?

    Two set screws are okay but stay away from clamp style blocks. They will rub for sure.

    Noveske, CMMG, YHM, Troy should all work fine. (Low pro two set screws on bottom of block)

    There is a lot of meat on the Geissele that you can grind away on the bottom by the set screws. I had a KMR that was really close, but took some off the bottom. It was never an issue.

    I see that the set screws are recessed but if I file it down it might screw up the threads. On this rail it would need quite a bit of filing. The two set screw lugs are tight against the handguard.
