    It's actually Flat Dark Earth but white is close enough.

    If a good ar has very little movement between the upper and lower....
    How do people get on with custom builds, or different uppers and lowers? Can you somehow take the play out?

    The accuwedge seem to work ok

    I'm not sure if there is a problem to fix as the scope is attached to the upper anyway

    Here is a video I haven't watched ...

    When i put my match gun together it had zero play, really tight fit. After alot of use its developed some slop. My guess is play is inevitable, steel pins through alloy holes and alot of use equals....

    I've found exactly the same. Tight combos tend to loosen up.

    My fresh build has no play. One I've handled a bit does.

    The Gen2 Aero lowers have a wee nylon grub screw at the back to take up some slop. People really get excited about shit like that

    My Armalite M4 has quite abit of wiggle between the upper & lower but yet I can achieve very reasonable accuracy out of it. Non-free float handguard as well.

    They don't call them "rattle guns" for nothing.

    Just drop a foam ear plug (you know the orange or yellow ones) in where the 'accuwedge' goes. Does the same thing in reducing slop.

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Typically the cantilever mounts face the way and the center of the scope is above the back of the hand guard/front end of receiver.
