Yankee hill flip up front sight gas block

I am not going to search for you, but the information has been posted before. I also posted pics of the sights as well.

The rails they use are old technology and are on par with other low level companies. Their barrels are not made up to spec and I know more than a few people who have gaged their chambers only to find out they were tight.

If that appeals to you then rock out, with your cock out.

I am sick and tired of the gucci gear queers that spout off that YHM is junk. If you don’t follow “THE CHART” your rifle is shit and not worth anything. If you don’t own X, Y, Z brand it’s not any good. I own YHM suppressors, FF rails, and 2 flip up front sight/gas blocks and I’ve never had an issue with any of the YHM products. They are heavy duty, solidly built, but not lightweight in any way. Is there better, sure there is because you can always find a better part if you look long enough.

The front sight/gas block has been on one of my 16 inch carbines for over 6 years, the barrel has seen range and class use/abuse over 6000 rounds, it never has failed to function, nor has the sight moved the slightest bit. The key is to properly mount it and use red Loctite on the mounting screws. Also, the YHM Phantom flash hiders were some of the most sought after FH’s when first released. Their suppressors have gone head to head with some of the top tier manufacturers and come out even if not ahead of some. The Rail systems are sturdy, some say they aren’t to spec, but like I said earlier I’ve never had issues with mine, even when it came time to mount a Tango Down VFG, which was also once the king of the hill.

Like most everything with AR15 parts, something new will eventually come out. They’ll be made of better materials, lighter weight, etc… YHM products have stood the test of time and are reasonably priced, used and mounted properly you can certainly depend on them. So, you can listen to the naysayers and stay away from them, or you can try it out and find out for yourself.

Hey, you only forgot one thing Gunz. Your customary closing of the thread if anyone posts something that objects to your expertise on a particular subject. Old boy must be softening up!
My experience with YHM was not a good one but their CS was great in making up for it. Only YHM item I have left though is the carbine length diamond rail and while heavy(as much as some mid&rifle lengths by other manf.)So it’s heavy but is in spec and solid but I’m going to replace it at some point.
