[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Gas Block & Tube problems

Posted: 3/21/2015 1:38:11 AM EDT

Hi everyone, first timer to the forum.
I found that my most recent build was being over-gased and creating some FTE (failure to extract/eject) problems. I want to replace the gas block with an adjustable one, but found that the new block puts the gas tube higher by about .18". What do you think I should do to remedy the problem?
Thanks, in advance, for any input.

The gas tube can be bent to accommodate that with no issues. Just make sure it aligns with the key properly when done.

I agree, .18 isn't anything to worry about, just be gently when you bend the tube. You don't want to crease it.
