Interesting... A definite possibility for my next AR-15... which will be my first build.
After watching the installation video in the link I am left to wonder why the system seemingly doesn't come with some form of anti rotation tabs. If I followed the video correctly you tighten the supplied barrel nut with a wrench and then install the gas block. The handguard then gets affixed directly to the barrel nut by six torque screws. So if your running a foregrip what is to prevent the barrel nut from coming lose gradually because of torque? Am I missing something in this design?
i hadn't watched the install video... whats the torque value for the barrel nut? he says something like "torque it down, but not too much..." with a set of channel locks in his hand. the gas tube bypasses the nut, so it doesn't even have that to help hold it in place.

NICE!
Does anyone know the weight difference between the TRIM and VTAC TRX?
I know the weights are on the websites, but I am unsure if this includes barrel nut weights.
The weights listed on our website includes the barrel nut and the screws to attach the rail to the nut.....
