I have the scope mount that slides over the top plate and clamps on to the gun with the pictinary rail mount and one on the side for a light or laser. Can anyone take that mount cut the pictanary rail off and weld it to the cover I have that goes where the rear sight goes. The plate has the three holes already that hold it down to the receiver. I do see that BMG parts have this mount already. Just don't know who well it will be to sight in a red dot with that rail I have now, it would be to sight in with it being so high above the gun, unless it does not matter. Thanks, Jerod
Thank you sir, I was just wondering about if I will have enough room for elevation in my Eotech since the mount is much higher than the top plate. Thanks, Jerod
Will be at least 200 yards minimum at a dirt back stop mostly then a car later this year but that is 250-300 yards. The used barrel I have when installed headspaces with the barrel screwed all the way in, but if you open it up to the "normal" two clicks the headspace is to much and will not function, but with the barrel all the way in the headspace gauge just slides in and the gun shoots great. Thanks, Jerod

Watch that barrel closely and recheck the headspace after 1/2 a belt or so (50 rds). I've never seen a barrel screwed completely into the barrel extension that is "GO" on the headspace guage in 26 years. The tightest I've ever seen is 2 clicks out. Have you checked the barrel extension for excessive wear or burgered up threads? Do you have another barrel to check the headpace?
The gun is new CWA build. Barrel is not new but it about half worn, after checking the brass after firing the case does not stretch and is all in spec, if I go two clicks out, the gun does not function, then only 1 click out and you will get about 4-5 rounds to fire then it will not cycle, but if you do no clicks out, it headspaces and the run shoots perfect.

Well,
Ed made mine many years ago too. First one I've seen all the way screwed in, and there's a first for everything. The "NO GO" gauge doesn't slide in the T slot at 0 clicks?
Several things I've learned in the last 16 years since I've known Ed Haywood: if he says it's true when he comments on an M2HB, MC3AC or Dragon 50 is that the statement he makes is true, and he is one person you can trust to have your six in a firefight... period.
