    Yes, I have their Low pro gas block on a 16" mega heavy profile barrel with the 14" wedgelock(M-lok) Plenty of clearance. The only place where clearance is an issue will be with Mlok accessories (screw protrusion) directly under the gas block. Sides of the rail are fine. FWIW I also dimpled and pinned the gas block.

    That is a common problem with slim rails and mlok components. SLR solved the problem by offering a shorter gas block. Works good. You can get adjustable and non adjustable ones that fix it. They shaved a fair amount off the gas block tip to tail and now no more problem.

    Did you dimple and pin it your self?

    Yep, I used the BRD engineering jigs. Their dimple jig has a pointed screw that aligns itself by setting itself into the gas port. I double dimpled it and loctited the screws and let it sit for a day. Then I used their pinning jig, drilled it, reamed it and pinned it. IMO the dimpling is paramount to perfect alignment of the block. If you don't then the block may be canted when pinning and will hit the inside of the rail. The top of the gas block has to fit square inside the gas block notch inside the rail.

    FYI: The SLR adj do not work with this rail.

    It's a super tight fit, but the Unity M-LOK Compatible FUSION Adapter tucks the Scout in very close. I had install the KAC Micro front sight first, and there was definitely some pressure that had to be exerted to pop the Scout into place. The screws that came packaged with the FUSION Adapter were also too short, had to run to Home Depot and buy some #8-32×1/2 screws.

    Not trying to be a heretic but, I kinda like the Zev logo better than Mega's atom. I think it looks sweet.

    I didn't like the idea of Mega going away, but I agree that the new logo looks a lot better.

    Whaaaat?? The atomic symbol is unique, the Zev logo looks like the autozone logo. Lame...

    I thought it looked more like service stripes.

    If that's what it is indeed modeled after then I do retract the "lame" comment...

    Just as an FYI, the Zev WedgeLocks are 6061, rather than 7075 like the Mega and Hodge.

    Like I said before, Mega is gone and Zev will take the profitable products and merge them into their product line. Sad to see they are cheapening the manufacturing to increase profit but not surprised one bit.
