    I like IPA...

    And Lord, don't get me started. I was testing some new reloads in my Glock34, trying to find a cheaper alternative subsonic bullet. My groups were all WAY low and all over side to side. I was about to hang up the test an djust buy the more expensive bullets when I checked - my front sight had worked loose and was all over the place. Duh! Tightened it, locktited it, and I'm good to go now with cheaper loads.

    Maybe I'm weird but I never loctite scope rings/one piece mounts. Loctite acts like a lube on the threads and changes the actual tension generated for a specific torque value.

    I assume that means the accuracy problem was due to the scope mount?

    Am I missing something? If the block is touching the hand guard it could affect accuracy. If it the clearance is tight enough that barrel whip causes the GB and hand guard to collide it could also degrade accuracy. How much trouble would it be to remove the HG , rest off of the magazine and see what happens??

    Wouldn't be too much trouble.

    Im just concerned this is an issue in the first place

    Having the gas block touch the inside of the rail is no different than using non-free floated plastic handguards. As long as you're not slinging up you can still expect pretty darn good accuracy out to several hundred meters. I used to shoot high power as a teenager without a freefloated barrel, and as long as I dialed windage for the prone stages to account for the sling tension, I didn't have too many problems.

    There's no way a 3" group at 25 yards is caused by the lack of a free floated barrel.

    This gun was slung at the time, used the sling for tension.

    I'm still going to check the optic when I get a chance, havn't been able to do anything due to work being hectic.

    In that case, if you weren't consistent in your sling tension from shot to shot, you could certainly have caused the spread. :)

    Also messed with the settings, no gas in my face.

    Sooooo

    Update, I removed the rail and gas block to install an mk8 and geissele spg. You can totally see the strike marks on the rail and the gas block, I took photos which ill post later.

    Emailed slr rifleworks, Todd responded saying if I am unhappy I can send it back, but no other information. Also said my site was confusing and that unless the barrel is perfectly straighy this may occur...?

    Anyway, going to see what they are going to offer in terms of getting this issue worked out.

    Ill keep yall updated.

    Glad you got the accuracy issue worked out. But I'm sort of surprised that a gas block won't clear a rail from the same manufacturer.

    I would be interested to see the pics.

    What did you have attached to the rail? What was striking?
