    I personally like the very scalloped out ss one as I tend to have a fairly high round count compared to most nz ar's but if your building a light rifle that's only going to see a few hundred rounds a year I can't see any issues with the JP alloy one other than the whole chemical reaction thing between metals.

    I don't know for sure, but I would be very surprised if it didn't as any sort of gas Bloch doesn't come much more low profile
