ircrapid Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hi I have some one making up a custom hand guard I havent removed the free float guard as yet but can anyone advise the thread holding the handguard in place. Some forums state 1-7/16 - 16 TPI - 2A and others 1-7/16-18 TPI - 3A Thanks Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Armalite, or DPMS pattern? Armalite is 1-7/16 x 18. *** Duh........didn't even pay attention that this was under the (dreaded) <laughs> RRA category. Not sure about the RRA receivers.

shibiwan Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) 250,000 licenced firearms owners and only 4 million people in a country the size of britian I was born/raised in Singapore before moving to the States. We had 4 mil or so then in 270+ sq miles (about 3x the size of DC), and zero guns available to civilians. ....but all males in the country have military training of some sort or other. BTW, welcome to the forum! Edited May 2, 2014 by shibiwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
