For ANY one who is Sitting on the Fence thinking about weather or not to buy one of these gas blocks, I am here to tell you that after installing one on my Seekins custom build, It has now fullfilled my Dreams of the Perfect running AR-15. I Now know what the Pro's have known that "Gas is the Secret" mine is on 5 and it allows me to shoot my un-suppressed Rifle without Recoil, IT IS the WAY LUKE, "Loose the Gas Luke!"
this is exactly why I looked this video up. I have an adjustable gas block and I don't like the fact that if I tune it for my suppressor then it won't run without it.
I recently purchased a Rifle Speed product and have encountered several issues that I believe need addressing. The main problem lies with the plungers used for gas adjustment. Having to buy and switch out multiple plungers to control gas flow is inconvenient and feels like an unnecessary expense. Instead of selling additional plungers, the product should feature a single, adjustable plunger that can be fine-tuned from settings 1 to 12 (or more) as needed. This would allow users to lock it down, open it up fully, or make precise adjustments without the hassle of swapping parts. Additionally, the gas block gets extremely hot, making it challenging to adjust without risking a burn. This design flaw impacts the overall usability of the product. While the concept is good, these issues need to be resolved to improve the customer experience. Simplifying the gas adjustment system and addressing the heat problem would make this product much more user-friendly and reliable.
Everywhere else I've seen suggests 4 o'clock ejection pattern is ideal. Essentially 4 would be good, 3 would be OK. I suspect your view differs because more gas = more reliable?
