Im building an SBR and since I will no doubt have this rifle for a very long time, if not forever, I have been picky, or actually stuck on what parts I want to build it with and I need some help with some questions I have.

The most un-convoluted way I can ask this is:  Can I run a suppressor with a switch block with a piston system.


However its more convoluted and complicated than that because i have yet to buy the handguard for this and not sure on what length to buy because I have not answered the question of were im going with this build yet.  I have a 10" noveske barrel with a low profile gas block.  In digging through my parts box, i do have an old adjustable gas tube.  I also have an Adams piston system.  I have an AAC m42000 suppressor.  

I was thinking about purchasing a noveske switch block, but it also seams like there are other switch systems out now?

After running a piston system for the last year I really love how clean my gun stays.  Conventional direct gas in so filthy. But if a piston with a suppressor isn't a good idea, then id like to maybe run the hand-guard a little longer covering the low profile gas block and then just use the adjustable gas tube which may or may not be accessible under the hand guard.

Your Adams Arms system has a "Reduced Gas" setting, and should run with a Can just fine, as an SBR.
