Just got a new .308 semi-auto and it's a bit overgassed. Going to send it back in for a look for that and a few other issues, but still think I'm going to put an adj gas block on when I get it back. Want to run suppressed, un-suppressed, and off (for subsonic).
SLR Sentry 7 seems like the tits.. any thing out there better I should consider? |
| There are basically two choices, SLR and MicroMOA. For what you want, I'd say MicroMOA. It's a little more work to get it set up properly, but once it's set up it's adjust on the fly. Just use a bullet tip or other tool through the handguard to move the plate to the desired position. The SLR is more of a set and forget. Adjustments on the fly are a bit more difficult, but it is a lot easier to dial in as there's no disassembly or drilling required. |

SLR ...for on-the-fly adjustments with and without suppressor.
ArmaLite ...for a static, but still easily reachable adjustment, much cheaper though. @ JoeBob's The ArmaLite has the adjustments on the side and front like the SLR, unlike most others.

Sent SLR an e-mail with questions last night.. they answered it at 9:30pm on a Sunday... sounds like top notch customer service to me.. Just not 100% sure the set screws are going to line up. May go the clamp-on route. Todd has answered my questions at all hours of the day and night on the weekends. But, my previous generation gas block had issues. That said, he mailed me a brand new current generation first thing on a Monday morning, no other questions asked, for free after my second issue. I'm not totally convinced of the reliability yet but I am certainly giving him another chance. I have googled it quite a bit, issues with his blocks are rare. |

I have a Syrac Gen II on my .308. I like it. No problems. Easy to adjust with positive click stops. Same here. The Syrac is functionally identical to the SLR and usually a fair bit cheaper in price, as well. I've run the SLR Sentry 7 on my regular AR15 and given the choice, I'd simply go with which ever one is priced better. |
