PKYINK

I want mine to look like the 2nd pic above but want to add sights like this one.. Man I love how easy it is to upload pics on this site. Other places make you use image hosting sites and whatnot. If I'd known I would have had pics from the getgo.

Ok so here's a pic of a 3K with stock extended mag tube that has the gap I'm talking about and then here's 2 3000's don't seem to have it. I was initially thinking it was just a matter of getting a diff foregrip and a clamp to disguise the gap but these don't have either yet don't seem to have the same gap. I have seen 3000's that have it though so is it just a matter of some mag tubes being thicker than others? Like I said it doesn't really matter I just think it looks goofy. 3K w/ stock extension M3000 with Nordic Components tube Taran Tactical M3000. There's a gap but it's not as pronounced. I could live w/ this.

Yeah I'm not talking about it going past the muzzle I'm talking about the gap/open space between the barrel and tube. It seems like it's more pronounced on the 3K's. I'll see if I can figure out how to post pics of what I'm talking about. Thanks for responding.

I've got a 3K on layaway and have been looking at various pictures of M3000's and 3K's and it seems most, if not all, the 3K's I'm seeing have a more pronounced gap between the barrel and mag tube than the M3000's. Is there anything I can do to fix it or is there an actual difference between the receivers I'm not aware of that causes this? Is having the gap something that 3 gunners prefer for some reason? It's def not a dealbreaker, I just don't particularly like the aesthetics. Is it just a matter of buying the right after market extension or barrel clamp? Or do I just need an M3000 forend? Any info is appreciated. Thanks.
