Re: ATI Deluxe Halo Heat Shields
You bought the old style. The new one has high temp polymer isolators. No metal-to-metal contact. It should fit an 18.5" barrel as the shield is only 16.5" inches long.

Like I posted in the other thread, you bought the old style ATI, not the Halo. The Halo has high temp polymer isolators. No metal-to-metal contact. It should fit an 18.5" barrel as the shield is only 16.5" inches long.

Re: Need heat shield options for my 88 and not ATI
I did not buy the Halo because they specifically said it would not work on a Maverick, so I bought the other and it was junk. I think I am going to get the Black Aces Tactical rail that is a quad rail system. And when the side saddle comes in, will mount it instead of the 3 Gun Gear 7 round side saddle. I can take the fiber optical sight off and install something else.

Re: ATI Deluxe Halo Heat Shields
Got with Chris at C&D and putting on a full quad rail with the heat shield and side saddle. Cost me some bucks but worth it for what I bought. ATI and 3Gun Gear going back. Problem solved.
I am now going to bed. Shotgun is happy , I am happy, new friend and small business to deal with. C&D Arms Supply is awesome.

Re: ATI Deluxe Halo Heat Shields
ATI was great to work with and told me to return for a full refund. Very nice folks. They knew the product has it's problems. I told them my thoughts were make the Halo 13.5" long for this and other guns and they have a winner and discontinue the current model. Thanks to ATI for being so understanding.

Glad I was able to help you out. The install instructions that come with the rail are not that clear so I posted color pictures on my site.
Let me know if you need anything else.

Re: Problem with ATI heat shield and my solution
Finally got to test it today. The mag clamp held! No slip at all.

I forget where I picked my polymer heat shield. I think it's one off ebay. Of course it slipped a bit. When I put the magpul forehand it rubbed as well.
I heated the oven up to like 150 degree on bake. Put the heat shield in on aluminum foil for 1 minute or less maybe once or twice. Just enough to get it to mold. NOT SOFT. ... anyway...
Molded the heat shield to fit the profile of the barrel snuggly and tightened up the little clamp a bit.
Once I got it where I liked it I put it in the refigerator for about 1/2 hour to set it (not the freezer).
Before install I used medium grade file not course to slightly break the sharp edge along the length of each side of the sheild.
really snuggled the screws not over tightend.
Now it clears the magpul for hand and hasnt slipped yet. Time and use will tell.

Seems to me the main problem is that everyone wants yadda yadda designed to fit their specific gun with such and such forearm and such and such barrel etc. It doesn't take a lot of brains to know that the ATI shields are designed to "BE FITTED" to as many diff guns as possible. That tends to imply that some minor fitting might be necessary on your, the user's, part. That back clamp thingy....if it's too snug on your barrel, open it. If it's too big, close it. If the forearm rubs, fix it. If you don't like the metal on metal contact, use a strip of thin rubber as was suggested. I mean, come on. Did anyone not know that??? Here's a tip; if you buy such and such a part, there's a pretty good chance that it might not perfectly fit the other half a dozen parts you've assembled. If it doesn't, that in no way makes it a bad part. Use your brain. Fit it or trade it.
And I have a couple of the Mossberg shields on my guns....and guess what? There's forearms that that shield won't fit.

I imagine Michaeld1953 fixed the problem. He hasn't said anymore about it for 4 and a half years.
