What is the lowest profile gas block out there, that will still function 100% of the time, and will firmly and easily attach to the barrel?

I know there are lots of different manufacturers (Knights, PRI, etc....), but which one has the smallest profile?  

Thanks in advance.

i think it's an A2 block that has the front sight milled off.

NAG, the PRI is almost identical to the KAC low profile gas block, but cheaper and no less quality

I'm not sure how the two compare but PRI and YHM spectre are both very low in profile. The only advantage the YHM has is that it's 2 piece and can be put on without removing breaks or sight bases(dissipater). IMO the PRI looks much better but that never played into how or why I purchased what I did. Both are steel. I run the Spectre.
