Using a surefire / geissele rod I checked the alignment on a couple of rifles with cans.
Pictured are the results I got.
first pic is a Daniel Defense mk18 sbr. Didn't expect much issues there, and alignment rod shows totally centered.
however the following two are a 10.3" SBR, DSA MK18 mod 0 build and a 16" aero precision build.
Anyone concerned about the slight misalignment on the two second photos? Obviously alignment rod is not touching the suppressor, there's still a noticeable gap. But being that it's not as centered as on my mk18, should I be concerned?
I also have a BCM 14.5 SBR and the alignment rod is totally dead center on that one. Too lazy to hit the safe and take a pic, but that one is also dead center as far as alignment rod goes. So the DD mk18 and the bcm 14.5 are both dead nuts on.
when looking down the bore from the suppressor end toward the chamber, all 4 rifles looks to be 100% clear with no obstructions.
am I over thinking? Does anyone else have the same experience I have?
Let me know what you think. Advice based on experience is really preferred on this thread.
Thanks fellas
