Anyone using a Geissele rail for AR10 builds?

[Celt]

Thinking of getting into the AR10 world and just like almost everyone else want it built to my specs and likes.

Would like to put a Geissele for the build but I'm not sure it will work on a AR10 (Aero) upper/barrel.

Daniel Defense doesn't make .308 handguards besides their proprietary one for the DD5. Geissele actually has made SR-25 compatible handguards, they were just never released to the public.

Mega/Zev makes a decent one, though the Mega ones are better on paper, due to them being made of 7075 versus the 6061 on the Zev. Centurion Arms also makes one, and the M-LOK versions are currently on sale: https://www.centurionarms.com/category-s/1816.htm

Plenty of other brands, too, just be aware that there's no real TDP, so some shit may not fit as expected. .308 ARs are a very different beast.

They are very different beasts indeed, which is why I don't own one yet. I think I'll stick with my G3 DMR's until I have enough cabbage for a LMT MWS!

For that CA MLOK rail, does a Sentry 7 adj gas block fit inside? GB height is 1.4” and rail ID is 1.441”. Seems awfully tight.

Centurion only recommends their gas block be used with the CMR rails.

For their .223 handguards, yes, but there's clearly more room in the .308 handguards.

With the original .308 CMRs, the Sentry 7s did fit. Not sure if the dimensions changed for the M-LOK variants.

Centurion says, “Currently our gas block is the only one that Centurion Arms can guarantee to fit under the CMR. This is due to the CMR's extreme low profile“. The .308 CMR lists ID as 1.25” and the .308 mLok variant ID as 1.441”, as uffdaphil stated.

I know a Troy LPGB will fit inside a Centurion CMR MLok rail.

May not make them anymore but they can be found for 308. Just saying
