Vercingetorix Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 @ USCM Corps: Heat dispersion, like a huge *albatross* CPU heatsink... In fact, most M16 length barrels have it on a much smaller scale(I think for the same purpose). Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Thought so. Cool idea... and it looks cool too! Anyone know if anyone makes Heavy M4 barrels( doesnt matter if its fluted)? trying to find one thats different then Vics. There's some cool new barrels from DYTac: http://www.dytactical.com/Product%20-%20Ai...0-%20Marui.html I have several of them. Redwolf carries them. Link to post Share on other sites

Victory Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 http://ebaybanned.com/product_info.php?products_id=1445 Got that in today, along with the H&K gas block that won't fit without serious modification, so I'll skip on that. (Probably use it on the M468 for the wana'-be REC7 look.) So, I'll need to order a lower profile gas block... http://www.tacticalgeardepot.com/product_i...ab0a1f0206b6cef Can't figure out how it mounts, though. I don't see pin holes in these pics or eBB's pics. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites

You must convince them to make either a straightline 14.5 incher or a 16 incher(preferably the 6 inch). They are nigh impossible to find with the sight tower notches cut for a midlength RAS(even theough the most cmmon use of 16 inchers are in 10in RAS setups with a gas block at 10 inches, no at 12 inches or at 8/9 inches stupid AS companies). Sure they understand the niche it would fill, as there is nothing else competing for that category. /End Of topic. Where did you find he HK piston block thingy? Link to post Share on other sites
Victory Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 The gas piston or the H&K piston block? Gas pistons are available on Evike. Look under M4 Parts. (They're made by SRC.) H&K piston block is available on eBayBanned. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites

So basically 14.5" and 16" outer barrels with no sight tower notches and no step downs in the barrel outer diameter. One diameter all the way from barrel base to the 14mm CCW threading step. ??? Basically the same as these from Noveske. Link to post Share on other sites

SO, how can i make a front set very close to that? im thinking that a standard frontsight with folding tower would work great with the RAS that VIC has, but are there any barrels that would be that length, and compatible? if i cant do it like that, i dont really want to... that is the only thing stopping me right now. -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
Victory Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 The rail system reminds me of Troy's rail systems. (LWRC basically took the Troy design, and flipped it upside-down.) http://troyind.com/mrf.html Pretty sure there are replicas of the Troy: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=4489 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=4490 The piston block, I'd go with one of these: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=1851 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=2198 http://yankeehill.bizland.com/store/product413.html This one here is the closest to LWRC's that I've found: http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/Pro...20FRONT%20SIGHT I'd buy this one, myself, if my barrel setup was different. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 the problem still remains on what barrel would be compatible with it though. those are great looking though. just need the right barrel... and i guess the 10.5 inch RAS would be correct? -joe Link to post Share on other sites
kodiak22 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 ive been looking into it very closely for a few weeks now, and yes a 10 or 10.5 inch handguard would be optimal. like Vic said a Troy replica RIS system would be closest you can get( King arms is suppose to make a good one).the barrel i would use would be a Dytac 16" barrel( look like a heavy barrel) not quite that same lenght but .5 of an inch isnt that much, even though its not fluted(personally im not going fluted until someone makes a barrel that looks like the Real gun, but that doesnt look like that will happen anytime soon), the profile of the barrel outside the handguard looks close the what the real one has. hope this helps a little.

kodiak22 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 sorry for double post just reread my last post and it was wrong i was thinking of the Madbull 16", and then the Dytac 14.5( heavy looking one). So i want to correct my last post by saying i meant the Dytac 14.5", with a m14/m4 barrel extension set from Evike. hoep thart makes a little more sense. Ps i couldnt edit my last post, so had to double post. Link to post Share on other sites

masakarijoe Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 ok, im gonna make my frontset now. just need to find everything in one store... ASGI or EBB. all i really need help with is finding a 16"-16.5" barrel that can mount a gas block in front of the midlength 10.5" RAS linked below and a gas piston operating rod. any help is appreciated finding either of those 2. here is my order so far: EBB: http://ebairsoft.com/product_info.php?prod...6bb49e994715a34 http://ebairsoft.com/product_info.php?prod...6bb49e994715a34 ASGI: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=4490 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=2198 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=2607 -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
Victory Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 The gas piston isn't long enough to reach a gas block that's mounted after a mid-length rail system. It's only long enough to reach a gas block that's mounted where the front sight is mounted on a standard carbine. Shouldn't be too hard to add length to it, though. As for the barrel, I can't think of anything. You might be able to take a standard 16" length barrel and create notches in it using a Dremel, or something along those lines. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 yeah, i think thats what ill have to do. OR, maybe i can buy a gas block that doesnt need notches? friction mounted? i think i found a few on ASGI... if they are infact, thats what ill do. heres what im looking at: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?...roducts_id=4165 OR http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?...roducts_id=2198 WITH: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=2727 and one of the following: http://www.kingarms.com/productpage.asp?prodid=878 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?...roducts_id=4490 http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?...roducts_id=4747 think so? i think that the King Arms RAS is closest to the real IAR in length. but i have no way of knowing the length of the real one. shame about the piston. oh well, its not really visable anyhow -Joe Link to post Share on other sites
