I love the new Adams arms low profile gas block and you can get the bcg nickel coated! But is the kit with the clamping gas block ok? What do you think?

the newer P-series low-profile gas block that i got in the mail recently have the usual 2 set screws and also a provision (dimple) in the right place for drilling for a cross-pin.

Loc-Tite Red the clamp screws and you'd won't have to worry about it backing off.

I have the old clamped gas blocks. They haven't gone anywhere for me and I didn't even loc-tite it like some suggested.

I have the old one as well. I dont recall putting any on the screws either. Mine has not moved.

I have one of the new gas blocks that replaces the XLP  block. Anyone know a good freefloat rail that will fit over it?

I think the Samson Evo rail will work with the Adams Arms eqpt as is, it retains the stock mil-spec barrel nut.

the issue is at least two-fold.  you need a rail that will clearance the P-series gas block, and then the barrel nut needs to accommodate the bushing for the piston drive rod.

I profiled the top of the AA P-series GB slightly (minimally) so that a Midwest Industries rail would fit over it with some clearance, and then, after torquing the barrel to spec, marked where i had to clearance the barrel nut and file a flat for the bushing to rest against.  i made the barrel nut cutout so that the notched height was the same height as a regular std mil-spec barrel nut.  can't remember what that dimension was, maybe .850".  i'm sure this voided all warranties.

i've put a couple hundred rounds through it sofar, no issues, no rubbing of the GB against the handguard.  my main worry is that the bushing that's resting against the barrel nut serves as a seat for the drive rod spring.  since the bushing contact point on the barrel nut isn't on the bushing centerline, might be cocked and could be galling, but sofar so good, light coat of grease.   it's survived several mag dumps no issue.

ETA: added a booger weld on top of the barrel nut, filed it to provide a flat spot to support the drive rod spring cup.
