Hi all,
I'm slowly putting my AR10 together, and have finally received the missing piece. My JP adjustable gas block, (JPGS-5B) arrived.
I went to test fit the parts, and it appears the gas tube is about 1/4 too long, (generic ML GT from from CDNN)
If I seat the GT into the block with the pin, and attempt to mount the GB, then the bolt won't close,
if I let the bolt close, obviously it pushes the GB forward of the port in the barrel,
I'm sure someone has encountered this, before, so what did you find? an obstruction in the gas key< (didn't see any)
an out of spec GT? an out of spec Gas block? call me befuddled.
AP receiver and BCG, 18" mid length barrel, ML GT and JP adjustable gas block.
(there's mention of .025 play, to accommodate conventional handguard retainers, but this is about 1/4 of an inch?)
Thanks for the education.
