    This is an old post from military morons. Look at the 7/30/2007 entry. Vltor did a torque test on one of their clamp on sight towers to see when it would fail. They ended up breaking the index pin on the barrel.

    It only one time and one specific block but it's a good demo on the security of a clamp on block when installed properly.

    Nathan,
    Just to let you know, I received the 1-8 twist 5.56 barrels yesterday, checked the fit to the Aero uppers and they fit perfectly. So when Drew finishes the engraving they will get put together with a Gilmore dot and a short test work out.
