Hey y'all,
I recently acquired a nice AR that I'd like to do some work on - but could use some advice:
1. It's got standard carbine handguards and a f-mark fsb.
2. I want to put a Troy Alpha rail on and will need a low profile gas block.
3. What do I need to look for in a low profile gas block? Obviously I will have to remove the existing sight - but what do I need to look out for in fit and installation ease?
4. The Alpha rail uses the existing barrel nut, but what do I do about the Delta ring?
It should be painfully obvious I am new to working on an AR - any and all recommendations or suggestions would be very welcome!
Thanks in advance.
Dryft.
