After a few attempts at punching out the front sight base pins, I gave up and took this carbine to the gunsmith next door. I think it took him some heat and some Kroil ... I think he said repeated heating and cooling which let the Kroil work its way down through the holes ... in any event, I finally got the Wilson Combat 9" TRIM rail installed on my Bravo upper.

I love it for what it is - I personally find the NSR forearm a little too thin and quad rails a little too thick regardless of maker. This is right in between, and never got more than "pretty warm" getting it zeroed. 16" BCM SS410 barrel shows a whole lot of possibility, shooting 69 gr Sierra BTHP ...

The TRIM rail is underrated and often overlooked. Nice piece of hardware....and Kroil if your friend. That stuff is amazing!

The TRIM rail really is a good looking rail, and the finish on them is flawless if someone is looking for an extra pretty rail.
