Any advantage or disadvantage to changing out to a floating tube with a 3-4 rail system besides being able to add lights, lasers, etc...? |

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Free float will allow you to use the Fwd grip with compromising accuracy.

You'll lose more accuracy having a chrome bbl(negligible) than you will distorting barrel harmonics by torquing the forward grip. If anything, a quad rail will be more aesthetically pleasing to the eye than a handguard mounted rail. And offer more real estate for useless items that will just imbalance your carbine If you do decide to pursue a quad rail, make sure you get a 2 piece one so you won't have to remove the front sight to install it. |

I shoot in 3 gun competitions, and have to rest my rifle on different items, walls, barrels, midgets, etc. I dont want the poi to shift, so I went free float.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Went to the range today to finally get some quality time in with my Spikes tactical M4 and had some issues. It worked fine when I would shoot a round at a time but as soon as I tried to shoot multiple rounds quick it would feed the first two rounds no problem but then jam up on the third round causing me to have to rack the round. It did this like clock work the entire 60 rounds I put through it today.
Anyone have any idea what the issue could be? I took it out when I first got it and everything was fine then about 3 weeks ago got a new trigger installed on it but I highly doubt that would cause feed issues.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Yea I did. I'm thinking maybe it has something to do with the gas system? I have never had an issue with my Armalite after almost 600 rounds through it. I heard Spikes was good which is why I bought one but am pretty pissed that its not working right.
