    AUG A3/M1 90 Degree Offset Receiver Rail Segment (A-1011)  Install Instructions/Notes 

    -IMPORTANT:  If you’re mounting any type of IR/laser unit to this rail, mount the unit as close as possible to the receiver screws to reduce any flex and to retain zero.  Mounting an IR unit/laser on the furthest forward position may result in vibration/flex in the aluminum.  The furthest forward slots (9-12) are recommended for white lights only as flexion is normal. 

    -Using a light offset mount or rail extension + white light increases the risk of rail flex.  This is normal, but to be noted.  

    -Mounting a light on the furthest forward positions (segments 10-12) increases vibrations to the light assembly- make sure your light is tightened down properly and add thread locker if needed.  Pressure switches may wiggle loose under firing as well - we recommend mounting these closer to the mounting screws  on the receiver for less vibration.

    -It is always recommended that a professional gunsmith performs any type of modification to a firearm.

    -*PLEASE Make sure your AUG is clear of any ammunition and disassembled/field stripped properly before installation*

    -All rails are test fitted prior to shipping, so if yours exhibits some wear on the mounting holes, this is normal.

    • Remove factory rail using a T30 Torx bit.  The factory screws typically can be loosened and removed by hand and shouldn’t require any power tools.  Just some elbow grease.  

    • Using the provided (4MM Hex) or reusing the factory screws, install the 90 degree offset rail into the factory holes in the upper receiver.  

    • Hand tighten each screw until snug or 35 inch pounds of torque if you have a torque wrench.  Do not over tighten as this could damage the mounting holes & receiver.  Thread locker is not necessary but a small amount can be applied if you feel the need!
