I purchased this gas block and the roll pin I bought wont go in, the two links are below. Did I get the wrong size or is there something im missing here? The roll pin dosent even say the size. Thanks in advance.

The new gas block should have come with a new roll pin

Why did go with that one? That's a lot if money for a gas block.

Go to a hardware store and get 5/64 roll pin.

Should work.
Of course it would not be the first time Midway shipped the wrong part.
Sometimes these things come in wrong from the manufacturer and I can tell you from personal experience their shipping department would not have a clue.
Also possible the gas block is out of spec.

I think the question is why would anyone make something like that?

I think its to replace a FSB. To hide the marks where it was.

Not all gas blocks come with gas tube pins.
