Is there a difference between low profile gas blocks?  I need a .750 to go under a samsung tube.  I am looking at the SAA steel one.

S:  There are two main varieties - clamp-on and set screw.  Personally, I prefer the clamp on types, easier to install and rock solid.  If you have a small diameter handguard, say 1.75" or less, then the clamp on type won't fit inside.  The set screw types will fit inside the smallest handguards, no problem.  I suggest you stick to name brands like Vltor, Midwest Industries or Wilson Combat and avoid brand X. - CW
