This may just be another dumb question but-
I’m trying to find out if there are any compatibility issues putting a Criterion barrel with its M4 feed Ramos on a Wilso Combat billet upper with its ”M4 like” feed ramps.
Below is a picture of the Wilson M4 like ramps.
I don’t have the barrel yet. would the Criterion be “happier” on an upper with true M4 ramps?

I believe you can put a barrel w/ M4 feedramps on a lower without them, but you cannot put a barrel with no ramps on a lower w/o them.

This is because the rounds can angle downward and get trapped under the barrel.

I'm sure someone will be along that can either confirm this or set me straight :)

Love the Criterion barrrels though... hard to go wrong for the price.
