I'm sure there will be. Nothing involving dremels or upside down gasblocks, though

One question- what the actual fuck is a boat donkey

They're right up there with duct tape.

Alright, got the gas block back off. Little bit of quick heat and tapping with a brass hammer got it right off with no issues. Gas block looks like shit, barrel is fine. Just going to order the Rainier Arms gas block.

I went through this with a GSB and a WOA SPR barrel. I got a brake honing tool to hone out the GSB by about .002" so it would fit. When I realized that a GSB is too fat for a KMR (evem after filing down the dog ears that protect the cross pin), I replaced it with an SLR Sentry 7 but if you drop them a line they will sell you a "match" Sentry with an extra 2 thou, I think, of ID. Fit like a glove. The next time I buy a barrel that is cut too thick for industry standard gas blocks I'm sending the barrel back. I ended up with a negative impression of WOA, a "meh" impression of the GSB, and a fantastic impression of SLR. I doubt I'll buy another WOA barrel again and reports like this shy me away from a few other manufacturers.

All that said, I do have a functional, but ugly, Geissle Super Block that should fit your barrel if you're interested...

Sorry for not replying for awhile, work and family life has been insane. Got the upper assembled, so I can run it on my SBR lower for now. Still need to buy parts to finish the lower.

Life struck again. My brother-in-law took his own life a month ago. This project got put on further hold. Back on the right track, though. Ordered the viper pst in 2.5-10x32 ffp. Got an insane deal on it. 550 shipped.

Sorry to hear about your Brother in law. Sucks.

Great little optic. I have 2 of the non illuminated ones and they are without a doubt the best Vortex optics I've used.

That's sad to hear..hope everything works out..

That 2.5-10 has been on my want list for awhile. It'll look right at home on nice rifle.

Sorry to hear about your loss.

$550 for that optic is a great deal! I've got a PST 2.5-10x32 somewhere.

I have a Geissele SGB on my Mountain barrel. Of course, it's not a "Match" barrel, but I'm not attempting brainstem shots at 600 yards. Point I guess is the SGB fits on some Rainier barrels.

I am getting one of those uber cool port doors. Should match my San Tan upper quite nicely. By my estimate it should add a good 20% more precision to my rifle.
