-Drake- Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Slight update on my m4. Changed the Adam Arms gasblock over to a vltor one as it wasnt possible to fit its gastube with the delta ring I'm using and that caused a bit of movement in the moe. Also picked up an afg.

Azulsky Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Why put the MBUS over the flip up front sight? Link to post Share on other sites
SteevoLS Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 With many railed gas blocks, you can't close the MBUS. The VLTOR sights/gas block sit higher, therefore allowing you to close the MBUS. Link to post Share on other sites
-Drake- Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 I prefer the chuckier mbus to the thiner vltor sight and also for the obvious aesthetics reason of having it match the gun. Link to post Share on other sites

mimesis Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 -Drake- : If the front Mbus sits a bit higher than the VLTOR... how do the MBUS line? any problem aiming? The Vltor sight tower has picatinny rails on the top of it that are designed to line up with those on top of most RIS/RAS. So mounting a MBUS there is just like mounting one on the front of your rail system. The arm that extends up from the Vltor is designed to place the front sight at the standard height. Gas blocks that have picatinny rail on them sit lower, however. That's why, in the world of R.S., there are two types of front sight--gas block height and front rail height. Go on any R.S. seller's website, and you'll find them differentiated in that way. I've never found an airsoft front sight that was described or distinguished in that way, though.

-Drake- Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Yeah as said the vltor rail is the same height as the rear rail so the mbus line up just fine. haha now thats just silly. 2 front sights. ha. -Joe Why exactly ? The vltor sight doesn't fit my personal preference and it has a perfectly useable rail section there to facilitate the mbus so in the end its serving its purpose. Link to post Share on other sites

raito Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 @Luis: That your AGM GBBR? how's the fitting of that rail? any issues or is it a straight fit? Link to post Share on other sites
Luis21 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 @Luis: That your AGM GBBR? how's the fitting of that rail? any issues or is it a straight fit? Hey, Yes that's my AGM, which was originally an 066. The rail fits without any modifications and the upper rail is straight. However, there is a gap of about 1mm between the upper receiver and the rail and the RIS rail is a tiny bit higher than the upper receiver. In conclusion the rail is great and is extremely usable, no problem. -Luis Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 VFC M4 and AGM M16 (now CQB M4). That VFC with the mid-length MOE guards looks absolutely tits dude.. ACM handguards i'm guessing? Either way, looks awesome. Link to post Share on other sites
SteevoLS Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 @Hwagan: Thanks! Tits are good, as are the VFC's internals and externals. They are indeed ACM, as MagPul hasn't (to my knowledge anyway) even released the "real" version yet. I had to do a little dremeling on the delta-ring end of the handguards to get them to fit the VFC delta ring teeth properly, but they were more than worth the $15 price tag.
