This video is by far the best explanation of how to make M-Lok installation work in a relatively easy way. This is a lot less complicated than all the other videos that other people have posted. This helps a lot of people.

Sort of like a reassurance that your not about to break the new thing you got. Just wish they were titled accurately... Especially since, if I ever load a vid after not affixing a rail for a year or two, this video clearly won't be the one I pull up due to the title.

Your totally right. This is an easier way to adjust the T-nuts. There is a draw back from doing it this way though. When ever you go past the point of the right adjustment you are eating into the thread lock and it will not hold as well once you back it off. Just like going to far with a pipe fitting. If you back of the fitting you need to take it back apart and re-dope it. Doing the T-nut the correct and a tad bit harder way insures the best fit and staying power of the threads.

Quad rails work and are strong. The only reason I moved away from them is to reduce the weight. I am a contactor and carry a D20RS which is a Heckler & Koch, HK-416 variant for 10 hour daily. If you want to make your rifle lighter I recommend using MLock as it is superior than Key Mod systems.

I never read the instructions. Glad I didn't realize that I was doing it "wrong." Some things are self evident. Nice to see someone else figured it out. 😋

You can use a 7 mm open end wrench on the T-nut rather than the Crescent wrench or pliers. Neat trick, BTW. Recently I needed to cut one screw to the minimum length to get it to turn into place between the gas block and handguard's flats for a bipod stud mount. It cleared by a whisker. I put the screw in a vice and cut it using a Dremel & cutting wheel.

"You have to push it in or it doesn't work."

Surpising MagPul instructions don't tell you you need a 7mm wrench and a 1/8" allen.

Right on thanks! Will be getting one for my AR at some point. Will keep this in my back pocket.

I figured this out pretty quick when I got my first rail, works great.

For those unfamiliar with how Magpul says to do this, here are the instructions they include with their accessories. Two whole pages are spent instructing you to measure rail thickness, attempt to match with t-nut spacing, remove and repeat until you get it right (PDF file): www.magpul.com/Files/Images/PDF/M-LOK/M-LOK_Tips.pdf

Good video, I've owned all types rifles my whole life and have stuck to the basics. I finally decided to check out the M-Lok connection platform and had no idea how they worked and I'm not ashamed of that. Every arrogant person commenting on this had their first day handling this style product wether on construction or firearms. They also stopped to watch the video 😂 knowing so much. Maybe they got click-baited into it.. it's a real thing. I installed my first M-Lok rail setup yesterday on my AR. I'm a fan of the product now. Thanks for your help. It is super simple but you don't know what you don't know.. grow up boys.

If I had to take a guess, it's because adjusting as you tighten ensures that the final tightening will be done into fresh threadlock compound, not compound that's potentially displaced or stripped off by having the threads pass over it multiple times.
