Anyone have any exp with YHM Specter gas blocks??

Thoughts?
Recomendations?

I have always avoided at all risk screwing around with the gas blocks cause i dont quite trust myself

I figured its only screw on (in theory) so my pet monkey could do it for me!

Any info would be great!!!

I am looking to build a Car length w/ mid YHM light weight FF and possibly twinking to a SBR down the road (TAX RETURN!!!)

Idea in the making:
Magpul stock/grip
TD V grip
YHM mid FF light weight w/ car lenght barrel and a hidden GB and Flip FSB
RRA lower/CAR A4 upper
and a few doo dads

thanks again!!

They are easy to install, but will not fit under DD, LaRue or similar quad rail handguards with a small inner diameter.
No problem under the YHM handguard you mentioned.

I use them as a "problem solver" specifically when someone has a permanent muzzle device or when they want a shoulder forward of the gas block seat like in the pictures below...

Thanks randy!

After some searching and clicking on yhm they sell a nice kit w/ sights and all kinds of goodies w/ the FF!!!

I think i found something to start saving for!
