I'm building a 14.5" mid-length which may have a suppressor on it in the 'future'.
Using a AAC 51T flash hider and a KAC URX3.1, so it is buttoning right up to the end of the barrel. My question is about adjustable gas blocks. Mainly, should I install one? |

I was debating the same question on my build. In the end, I decided to go with just a standard LPGB. Here's my reasonings.
1. I'm using a Noveske barrel. It already comes with a gas block, pin, and the barrel cut for the pin. 2. I've already spent quite a bit of money on my build. I felt that the cost wasn't worth the benefits. I'll take a little extra gas in the face and save some money. 3. I didn't want to have to send my stuff in to have the barrel and gas block recut to put on a different gas block. 4. The gun will run just fine with a suppressor and a standard LPGB. 5. When I do eventually get a suppressor, and IF I do decide I need an adjustable gas block, I can do it then. |
