ACE clamp on front sight


Recommended Posts

Those aren't ACE clamp on front sites. Those are custom gas blocks from Krebs Custom. You'll have to mike your barrel and see if those will fit.

 

These are the ACE clamp on front sights. They clamp on to any gas block.

re-read my post...i have a link to the ACE clamp on sight and if you read the whole thing i mentioned the ones i posted a pic of were Krebbs. My question was which ACE clampons worked for the 308 ACE offers two sizes.

Please read my first response. I DID answer your question.

 

You'll have to measure (mike is short for 'use a micrometer on it') your barrel and choose the gas block that has the corresponding ID. Krebs lists the internal measurements for the two sizes.

 

If neither is right, you may have to a) turn your barrel down or B) shim it up or c) go with the clamp on style.

The ACE sight you'll need is the small-block version. I have one on my S308, and it fits perfectly. There's actually tow versions floating around, one as pictured, and the other has countersunk (flush) mounting screws and a "split" (AK style) sight housing. That's the one I have. Hope that helps.
