    Tim, I saw those today at Greg's table at OGCA show in Wilmington. He said to say hey to you. How do those gas tubes work on a miniG? Are there any benefits?

    Benefit is that there's no mod needed to make it work with a scout rail. No mod to the rod or the rail. How much are they being sold for Bill?

    Neat. Does that include the Ultimak scout rail? And whats the gas preasure like(Set up to handle 308 I assume). Does the adjustable gas plug fit or is it even needed? Wheels in my head are turning.

    If I the Smith Muzzle brake can be fitted to this instead of the long BM59 I am going to have to give you a phone call. Looking at the BM59 Muzzle brake you could possibly cut it down to the same length as a Smith and copy their pattern of holes or create your own based on other Brakes then grind off the Bayonet mount and repark it....Not sure how much machine work that would take. A Smith Brake costs about 125 and a BM59 is about 80 so it may be worth it. Yup I am going to have to give you a call.

    Smith can't fit. Nothing can fit except the old BM59 brakes. Bill asked me for the advantages, not the disadvantages.
    You also cannot use a Garand gas lock.
    This involves spending the money on the gas cylinder and the brake. I think that's somewhere around $200 on up.

    Tim, I didn't notice the price as I wasn't interested. I'll ask Greg as he is going to call me regarding some project parts, probably be Tuesday. I don't know if you're interested but Greg has a heard of those Winig seconds. He usually gets 20-25 dollars apiece. I've gotten some really nice stocks from him.
