Hey guys who makes a good low profile adjustable gas block in .750 for suppressed? I'd like it to be able to turn gas off too. Let me know your experiences/recommendations.

I've put a few of these on. I like them.

SLR Rifleworks.

I'm using two of them right now.  Easy to adjust, no set screws to lose, well machined.


You can't go wrong with SLR or Syrac.

I don't know if it is great with suppressed but the adjustable gas block I got is called the DIctator by POF. It comes with a straight gas tube instead of a slightly bent one.

Also I like you can pin it to the barrel. I have mine pinned to the barrel.

I have two SLRs--A clamp and a set screw.  Both work great.

If you are going to suppress then the Superlative Arms bleed-off system will make the suppressed rifle a little quieter.

Thanks for the responses guys. This is exactly what I was looking for. Yes it will be suppressed. I'll check this one out. Also The SLR is looking attractive because it is in stock.

Funny you mention the Seekins. My receivers are Seekins for the build.

Clamp on VS Set Screw.... Hmmm which one?

SLR

Read a post here on arfcom of trouble between Syrac and the patent holder Superlative Arms. Just a fyi.

And fuck seekins pos adjustable block. POS brass retention screw butts against barrel shoulder and is so soft it stripped out. 2 emails to seekins, crickets.

SLR on the other hand excellent customer service. I actually blew off the retention leaf spring thingy, they sent me a new upgraded version at no cost, no questions asked. That is customer service.

Since my wife just walked in from the mailbox with my SLR I ordered two days ago I'll say SLR!  Can't wait to get it installed and verify its the real deal.

Good to know. I was reading up on the Seekins and it has a locking nut (or something to the extent of) and have to remove the handguard to lock it so I am def not interested in that.

The Syrac is not in stock (like everything else in this industry) but I was leaning more towards the SLR anyway.  

Hmm Steel VS Titanium? What do yall think?

Also Set Screw vs Clamp on?

Mine are all ss so I can't comment on witch is better. SLR responds to emails quick so that may be your best option. If your not going for a light build I would save the money.
I used set screw blocks and one is also pinned but my last one is a clamp on to try.
You will be happy with any combination you go with.

i went with steel for the $ savings.  If i were building a lightweight AR i might entertain a titanium version.

As to set screw or clamp on?  Pick your poison.  If your barrel is dimpled, I'd get a set screw version.  If not, I'd get a clamp on.

Yeah good call on the dimple. Does anyone know if the Larue Stealth barrels are dimpled? I think they are not.

The Larue barrels are dimpled and SLR makes an adjustable and non adjustable GB that matches the outer two dimples perfectly.

SLR titanium is a nice. I like mine a lot. Only issue I ever had was it getting locked up from heavy suppressor use but soaked it with gun cleaner and it was fine.

Yep.  I've got one on a stealth barrel.  SLR block with .450 spacing will mate up perfectly.

My only rifle with an adjustable gas block runs an slr. Easy to use  and easy to clean. If I ever need another adjustable I will go with slr again
