I like Gs pinned Super Gas blocks, I use them on all my Franken builds, the silver version which is different than the black nitride. Thumbs UP!

I already have a urgi with Daniel defense barrel got it when they did the Black Friday sale been thinking of getting another one with the new geissele barrel thanks for review !

I just ordered one of these today. Can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Just found your channel and subscribed, received an email from Geissele needed my updated address. So excited

Great video. Thanks for putting together this unboxing and overview. My URG-I near clone arrives this Friday.

I bought this upper to replace my KAC M4 upper so i could have more room. 10/10 would recommend to anyone

I love your geissele reviews

Geissele is definitely newer in the industry compared to some but they are definitely releasing quality products!

The sf4p also comes on one of the ddm4a1 uppers

that is an awesome upper 👍🏼👍🏼

That’s a beautiful upper

How does it compare shooting with your super duty?

That looks like the midnight or burnt bronze S 13" 7075 T-6 aluminum hand guard on my 10" barrel

Is it just me or does anyone else like the small white print on like the mk4, mk8 rails?

Damn! 30% off a surefire suppressor? That’s a good deal. Does that include the minis or does it have to be the rc 2?

I got my URGI upper from brownell. Didnt get any stickers or any of that :(

Just orderd my mk16 rail :)

You ordered this straight from geissele?

I wonder if the coupon code is still included?

Yes. 30% off MSRP and you have to call SureFire with the code/receipt of the URGI to claim it.

The urgi barrels were never black oxide according to geissele cs. Just the super duty barrels.

That’s weird because I was just emailing with their customer service and this was specific to a type of metallurgy they were using called “milspec+”. They had trouble getting the mag phosphate coating to stick with it. He told me there was a period of a couple of months where all barrels going out were both “milspec+” and black oxide coated. This was a reply I received yesterday.

is this upper reciever discontinued or just out of stock out for the moment

Maybe?? It would be cutting it really really close. The handguard is 13.5” and when a suppressor is mounted to the Surefire devices there is a slight overhang past the muzzle device.

What’s the square marking mean on the receiver next to the G ?

@GunBoxTherapy

2 жыл бұрын

That is the forging mark. The square means that this upper was forged by: ‘Brass Aluminum Forging Enterprises’. Them and ‘Cerro Forge’ (keyhole marking) are the 2 most popular forgings. So first the metal is forged and then it’s machined by the manufacturer (in this case ‘Geissele’) which is the more important part of fitment or parts and to the lower. Check out what a raw forging looks like in both the upper and lower.

So what makes it near clone vs clone correct

Is there any major difference between this URGI and Geissele’s Super Duty?

@GunBoxTherapy

2 жыл бұрын

Sergio, I hope I don’t come off as rude but I just don’t want to have to type up all the differences again but I did answer this in another comment below yours. It isn’t much but the URGI is for someone looking to “clone” a currently used USASOC (US Army) rifle and the Super Duty is your standard Geissele. By all means though, the SD is no standard run of the mill AR. They are superb shooters and I love both my SD and URGI. Geissele received a contract from the Army a while back to make these uppers though. Gas port enlarged, different muzzle device and slightly different handguard come on the “near clone”. The “clone correct” is much more involved.

I’ve been wanting to build a URG-I clone, but I have a Super Duty upper already and wonder if it’ll be much different besides the rail color?

@GunBoxTherapy

2 жыл бұрын

I’m gonna try and keep this short but I have a feeling it won’t be. lol. A lot of people seem to say that the new URG-I is nothing different than the Super Duty upper. On the surface, this can seem true but there are minor differences that make a URG-I (clone or near-clone) stand out. First - The Barrel. Typical of the URG-I is a chrome lined and cold hammer forged barrel. It’ll be either a 10.3” or a 14.5”. Lastly, is the gas port size. The military uses what’s known as a “crane spec” or “SOPMOD” gas port in the barrel. This is a slightly larger gas port that increases reliability in adverse conditions (weather, lack of oil, dirty, suppressed). Second - The muzzle device. The flash hider you see on my near-clone is “clone correct” as in a Surefire 4-prong flash hider is used on the actual URG-I. These are very hard to come by and when you do find them, people are asking $400-$500 for them. Third - The rail. So yes, the major difference is the color but there are also 2 others differences between this and a super duty MK16. The NSN and Geissele roll stamping on the left and right side. As well as the anti-rotation tabs. I prefer the manner in which the MK16 on the Super Duty attaches to the upper but both are sufficient in doing what they are intended to do. Fifth - The Surefire golden ticket. This only applies if you buy the URG-I near clone from Geissele. You receive a 30% off coupon off of two items. A Surefire RC-2 Suppressor in Tan/FDE and a Surefire IR light or light/switch combo.

Honestly the super duty is probably a nicer shooting upper with the smaller gas port and better performing surefire muzzle device.

@chaoticcaninejb

I have both and thr only difference of course with the SD upper has the tongue and groove on rail to upper to prevent twist they had on urgi uppers, but the SD is more accurate not much but is tighter on 9 different types of ammo I've used. Overall it's pretty much the same, but urgis are pretty much done with since contract is no longer. The SD uppers are gonna be going forward as they try to get in the new SOPMOD contract.

@@chaoticcaninejb I agree. Honestly I like the NSN marked URGI for collecting reason but personally I think the SD’s have a slight advantage for the reasons you stated and they seem to be gassed slightly better. Also, I absolutely love the FCG that comes with the SD. The shape of the trigger is perfect and the CTN warcomp is a better muzzle device than the 4 prong IMO.

If you take a look at Geissele’s chart they recommend either one (H1 or H2) on a 14.5”. The chart is located on the product page of all of the Super 42 spring/buffer combos. The only caveat to that is if running suppressed they recommend an H2.

I partially agree with you on that. While I wish they would’ve stayed with a phosphate finish over the black oxide, I’ve not noticed any problems with mine rusting or any imperfections in the finish. I take this thing to the range probably once a week and put about 300-400 rounds through it per trip. While that may be a low round count compared to some other people, I don’t suspect any problems to arise. If for some reason I start to see anything, dissemble, sand blasting and Cerakoting can all be done in a matter of 2 days or you can pay someone. I do agree with you though, Geissele should’ve went with the better finishes of the two.
