[ARCHIVED THREAD] - add adjustable gas block

Posted: 10/13/2013 3:43:24 PM EDT

Hi gang,

I can't find an adjustable top rail gas block that is pinned to barrel using existing pin recesses on barrel. I don't like the set screw style or drilling a set screw dimple. Am I looking for the impossible?

Thanks everyone for your advice.

I've never seen a pinned one. But you might be overlooking a third option.

Made it hot.

These are some pretty nice top railed adjustable gas blocks that don't require dimpling the barrel and would still cover the holes from the pinned block you'd be removing...

Just my .02

The only thing that will pin in place using the stock pin locations is the original gas block. The barrel and gas block are drilled together as a mated set.

Adco (and others) will pin a set screw block, but they drill their own hole for it.
