    I think what you want is some outer barrel shims/washers.

    EDIT: Or maybe not, eyh? You have the opposite problem? Isn't the barrel nut double ended with different spacing on each end for alignment purposes? Or was that the C&C nut... 😐

    I used a combination of these to install and align my HAO MK16 rails on my WE build.

    Definitely the opposite problem 😕

    Hello Folks.
    I know it's not the tech forum, but I need AR related help and considering this thread popularity it would be possibly the fastest way.
    So here's the thing. I got HAO's 9,3 inch Mk16 some time ago, but it appeared that its barrel nut has too shallow threading, comparing to CC Tac, and after the rail instalation there's a gap between the rail and th receiver.

    HAO's RS spec nut is 13,33 mm deep, meanwhile:

    What I need to know is what HAO's AEG barrel nut threading depth.
    I asked at source but surprisingly they were not that willing to help.
    Is any one here able to?

    Getting there, slowly. I call the shell done. Now time for internals...
    I don't think that You can go any better with regular AEG gun, not using RS parts - in terms of external finish and similarity to real stuff.
    Brief parts list:

    - King Arms Colt marked receiver set, cerakoted in-da-house  (I do what I must because I can ;) )

    - steel magazine catch and selector lever  (G&P and King Arms)

    - VFC CQD sling mount  (in courtesy of intinerious)

    - C&C Tac Geissele Mk16 rail  (yeah, HAO is better, so I stashed it for possible MWS build ;) )

    - C&C Tac Geissele ACH

    - Madbull steel outer, 14,5 inch, mid-lenght   (unfortunately regular, not heavy profile, but hey - You can't have everything ;) )

    - HAO Geissele low profile gas block, corrected with Cerakote   (originally this part had flawed, uneven finish - which is pretty weird for this "hi-end" brand)

    - G&P 5 position stock/buffer pipe/tube, choose the term You want ;)

    -  Evolution Gear EXPS

    - PTS MOE grip and trigger guard

    So, yeah, it's not exactly URG-I clone, but very close, obviously. I really happy how it turned out. Next build will be based on KAC ambi lower by King Arms, and 10,5 Mk16 rail I hope to be released by HAO one day.


    So, the beggining was like:

    And here's final result:

    I have the same issue with King Arms sights on G&P bodies and the HAO URGI handguard.

    I own the same Ali KAC sights - no issues.
    In fact they are pretty decent for the money. They could be easily improved to be more accurate copy, but... I guess it requires time and will. While Chinese manufacturers are really slow about improving anything ;)

    DYTAC SLR B15 receiver with SLR 8" UltraLite ION handguard MLOK, both Cerakoted by Deadlock Coatings of Winter Springs, Florida. 

    Upcoming suppressed SBR build will be shown here :). The coating cost more than the receiver T.T

    Nice. This is RS rail, isn't it?
    Those Dytac/SLR shorties are cool, but OOB choice of rails is not that great. I was thinking about grey/light bronze/black color scheme like the one SLR posted on FB.
    It would be just cool if Dytac released ION Lite edition of this AEG.

    I didn't plan to use 9,3 Mk16 on my workhorse gun,  equipped with DD Mk18 until now, but I was curious... And I think I will leave as it is now.
    Pardon snowy pictures - not really able to pull out something better now. I'm going to replace them tomorrow.

    There's only one thing to be done - I need to machine lacking top rail slot on the front of Mk16. 
    In "courtesy" of C&C Tac...🤦‍♂️

    Fifty shades of DDC. Pardon a potato made picture this time but still it shows what it meant to be showing ;) .

    Two C&C Tacs and HAO in the middle.

    Well. With better overall detail accuracy, and $100 price tag HAO's version is a killer.

    Don't get me wrong C&C Tac made a really great looking and feeling copy of the rail, but at $155 with all omitted details it is just worse. Objectively and undoubtedly.

    I was afraid that surface finish will turn to be very rough, as it was portrayed on HAO's promo pics but it is just slightly harder sandblasted, than C&C Tac's offering.

    Add a load of weight in perhaps the worst place to add weight as far as it relates to affect on handling?  For essentially zero gain both practically and aesthetically?  Not personally my cup of tea thanks, I infinitely prefer the standard pot metal barrels, especially given you basically can't see 80%+ of the barrel with most builds using modern handguard configurations.

    Hey, but where's the strive for realism? ;)

    And I would be careful on lack of practical gain. I can easy recall a few situations when I wouldn't bet on aluminum outer barrel survival...

    Here's my new "oar", WIP.
    Another step. The shell before cerakoting.
    Funny thing - I figured out, that Madbull's steel outers (14,5 MID, GOV profile) are slightly too short. For about 7 mm.

    - C&C Tac MK16 (best released so far)
    - Madbull 14,5 outer barrel (MID, GOVT profile, steel)
    - King Arms receiver set (Colt markings)
    - VFC CQD sling mount
    - Iron Airsoft 51T (which doesn't seem to be very accurate, BTW)

    The rest? Pretty obvious or irrelevant ;).
    Or invisible. For now.

    *fruitcage* sake

    Honestly, after flickr said they're limiting storage space I spent more time than I want to think about moving over about 1500 files and putting them alllll back in to various albums and reorganising; and this was only about a fortnight ago.  I think I might have a small breakdown if I have to do the entire thing *fruitcage* again.

    Put these on imgur.  Working?

    97TXOEE.jpg

     

    eta - Google Pics seems to work 100% over on AF-UK and the crop tool on imgur is garbage, so I'm banging my head on the table over here as to why something this simple is so hard when bloody photobucket used to work fine back in the way (before it went down the drain).

    This build is a pretty good example showing that AEG airsoft gun can be a great looking replica too. I've always been wondering what happened, that better parts quality seems to be reserved for PTW/GBB guns, specially when we talk about receiver sets. 
    And here You go - good quality receivers (despite the fact these are just cast (Avalon?) ), some RS furniture... Looks great. 

    BTW. Don't You want to get rid of Your another BCM receiver?





    ...You don't, I know. Who would like to... ;)
