NightStalker Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 With a mid length gas system, what length HG barely covers the gas block. I’m thinking 13 in but not sure I don’t need a lot of rail and want to keep it somewhat lite for mobility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtDog0311 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 I was wondering if a guy had an adjustable gas block would he need it exposed for adjustments. I've not tackled a build yet so that is obviously a novice question. Could be they are adjustable through the access inherent with the HGs.

I have several adjustable blocks that are buried, just careful to use one that can be worked from the front with an extended tool. I have one I can worm my way in on the side but that is not as handy as a long tool from the front. I worry about it less and less, find that after the initial adjustment I rarely have the need to re-adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtDog0311 Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Thanks JT. I think I am down to two. Have not researched this faxon yet, i.e., would like to know if they have a bolt to sell with it. https://faxonfirearms.com/faxon-18-big-gunner-profile-ar10-barrel-308-win-nitrided/#product-reviews The other is the AERO BA 20" CMV offering now back in stock (or was a minute ago). The Faxon would make a 9lb out of an otherwise 10lb rifle, no mag or scope. Just iron sights in that weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
