AR GUYS - Can I free float a hand guard on a HBAR Bushmaster 20" A2 Service Rifle?

[10thmountain]

Greg_D Will do. Did you take the plunge and go the optics route? Or still using A2 with NM sights?

I jumped in the deep end, A4 WhiteOak upper, Krieger Barrel, Geissele Trigger, Magpul UBR stock, Magpul Forward Assist, Nightforce Service Rifle Scope. In this game, it's buy once, cry once. In big matches I never want to second guess my equipment, when I shoot a bad shot I only have myself to blame. I'm going to the National Matches at Camp Perry in 2 weeks.

Amazing. Now that is a set up.especially the scope.

I shoot the SouthRiverGunClub monthly NRA 800agg today, scored 783. I think I'm ready for Perry if I can keep my nerves in check.

I would say you are good to go.

CQB27 , you should come out to TheFloydCountyWildlifeClub for their monthly match.

You're right, I should!
I have shot out there a time or three but never at one of the matches. it was when the club was hosting the City of Rome for a annual event. Great shooting site for sure.

I hope you start a thread when you get back from Camp Perry and tell us all about it.

Greg_D have all the regulars at Riverbend made the switch from A2 to A4 w/ Optics in the HP matches? Or heck at Southriver even?

Sorry I'm jumping into the thread late. I found out first hand Bushmaster presses in the sight block pins, so whatever free float system you use, bank on not getting the sight block off without something a lot more than a hammer and punch. Midwest's free float quadrail that clamps on the existing barrel nut by cutting off the delta ring would be a good choice.
