I’ve been working on printing up a Nylaug, but my KAK barrel doesnt fit through the front hole, measuring the step file, it’s 22.86mm. Unfortunately I didn’t catch the dimensions of my barrel because I didn’t have my good caliper with me, but from the minimum specs image, the largest diameter on the barrel is 0.960 inches, or 24.38mm. Has anyone else who built a Nylaug had to open up the receiver channel more after printing? is my KAK barrel just out of spec?

    I haven’t gotten any threaded rods yet since I’m gonna be getting the aluminum trunion from Riptide, and they for whatever reason, don’t list what the machined threads are in the trunion. Thus, I’m waiting until it arrives.

    However, today I was able to go back and work on the thing, the KAK barrel measured out to be 22.84mm at that one section and the physical print I measured around 22.6mm.

    I shoved the barrel into the hole the wrong way and then hammered it through with a nylon mallet until it sheared off a thin layer of plastic, it fits fine now lmao, problem solved!

      The threaded rods are standard M3x0.5 like the original build documentation states. I can also confirm as I recently upgraded my 300blk out build not long ago. They tried to make it as compatible with the original build as possible. An interference fit is a good fit lol
