    I think it will be more of an issue if you need to increase the gas port diameter, running a drill bit into it may cause the chrome to flake and start peeling off, which will turn your barrel into a plinker. Being Bushmaster they have probably drilled an excessively wide gas port anyway so hopefully it won't need doing.

    factor in that you will most likely need a new gas block (and possibly gas tube)

    If you want to go short Id say a carbine length gas system would be most desirable

    Anyone use an AFG on their AR?
    Do you recommend it? or would a vertical grip be better?

    A mate uses the magpul afg and I personally don't like it but he has an injured wrist and it makes shooting his rifle more comfy so each to their own
    The Nea forend isn't the most comfortable to hold anyway,

    I just wrap my forends with motorbike inner tube

    Run an AFG on my 6940. The handguard is quite fat.

    Anyone use 1 of these? AR specific multitool.
    Leatherman multi-tools: MUT

    Looks like a very handy piece of kit.

    You don't actually need any specific tools for an AR except a castle nut wrench, barrel nut wrench, neither of which are on that

    Has other handy bits on it that other multi's don't.

    Brownells do a Multitasker multitool as well - but they won't send them out of the USA 'cause they're black, dangerous and menacing. lol

    A comparison review of the 2 tools....

    Not after workshop tools Gimp, I know someone with all of them.
    Just thought it'll be a handy bit of kit to have on the hill.

    Over priced, gay colour. Buy an NEA and paint it green or tan. Only like $20 for a can of Krylon or Rustoleum.
