Got my GB 18" MONSTER barrel and excited to start the build. I have most of the parts now and waiting on a few others.
My upper is a billet upper with no forward assist or brass deflector. I chose this upper thinking that the slighter "stiffer" performance may translate into more precision at long range.
Downside, no deflector. Anyone shooting an upper with no deflector? If so, can I expect a nice 3-4 O'clock throw? Or will it be like the old days of Ft Rucker in the pit with my M16A1 getting smacked in the face with hot brass?
