    it's a Noveske 14.5" with a permanently attached Surefire brake/suppressor mount to bring it to 16+"

    Cinch it very tightly so the sling will not contact barrel or gas block.




    Blackheart International lower, Trijicon Accupoint TR21 1.25-4X Accupoint on LaRue SPR-E mount, VTAC TRX Extreme 11", VTAC sling, CMMG 14.5" lightweight midlength barrel with pinned Phantom FH. While I'm right handed, I keep the buttstock end of the sling fastened to the right side of the stock. Less interference.



    This "technique" also works on Blackheart's http://www.bhigear.com/bhiriflelengt...15carbine.aspxnew freefloat tubes.....5.45 barrel with a shaved FSB.

    Can you remove the hand guard now that the brake is permanently attached?

    Yes, you can remove the Handguard/Main Tube from TROY/VTAC Extreme Rail Models with pinned muzzle devices that have a smaller OD than the ID of the tube.

    the handguard can be removed, as it will slip over the gas block and muzzle device.

    the barrel nut (which is proprietary to this unit) cannot be removed once the muzzle device is permanently attached.

    Ben,

    How did your carbine perform at the EAG class in Lakeland?

    Unfortunately, the carbine short-stroked on Wolf ammo (lower pressure than mil ammo), so I defaulted to my ugly & reliable LMT 10.5" for the course.

    However, the Noveske ran great on M885 ball (with the H buffer), and when I put a standard carbine buffer in, it ran a bit better with Wolf, so I was able to run a couple of mags through it. I think that the gas port in the bbl is either too small, or that it was partially occluded by the gas block...shouldn't be too difficult to remedy.

    Bear in mind that I only was able to get limited use out of the gun, but so far I like the VTAC rail. It's very streamlined and easy to grasp; the placement of the pic rails puts my accessories exactly where I need them, with no extraneous rail-estate; because the tube is so long, I can get my support arm out far enough that pronating my wrist forward is comfortable, which pretty much negates my need for a VFG.

    One more question, honest.

    Why the Surefire MB556K? Are you using an SF suppressor as well?

    I have several ARs configured for different purposes. For this rifle, I wanted to have the benefit of speed/control more than flash suppression.

    I will be getting some Surefire suppressors in the near future, and one of them will be a demo can, which will be mounted on this rifle.
