A set screw is used to positively retain the 5/8-24 thread adapter via the gas plug. The gas lock front sight base is retained by the gas plug.
The gas lock front sight is installed over the 5/8-24 thread adapter and bottoms out against the gas cylinder. This provides a mechanism to securely align the barrel with the adapter. The 5/8-24 thread adapter registers against the barrel shoulder outboard of the barrel muzzle threads. The 5/8-24 thread adapter is installed directly on the muzzle threads of the barrel. The original equipment gas lock muzzle brake is removed. The Delta P Design 5/8-24 M1A SOCOM model adapter kit allows the use of standard 5/8-24 RH accessories while retaining the factory sight location. Springfield Armory®* SOCOM rifles are 16” barrel M1A variants with proprietary muzzle threads. The Delta P Design 5/8-24 M1A SOCOM model adapter kit mounts directly to the muzzle of the M1A SOCOM model (and variants) in place of the combination gas lock front sight and muzzle brake. If a standard model M1A 5/8-24 thread solution is desired please reference the M14/M1A adapter here.Īs with all the Delta P Design adapters, these are always made in the USA in-house from hardened billet material and never modified overseas castings. This is specifically for the SOCOM 16 model M1A. The Delta P Design SOCOM adapter uses two separate components and registers directly on the barrel threads and thread shoulder for its alignment: NOT the gas cylinder casting like the factory muzzle brake and other adapters.
