Will superlative arms adjustable gas block clear aero atlas -s hand guards ?  Looking at ordering one just not sure they will clear hand guards?  Clamp on or set screw ? Thanks

Phone call to Areo would help. They use a Superlative on one of their uppers not sure if it's S one.

After emailing them and getting told a rifle length gas system won’t work with a carbine buffer system. I don’t believe much they say.  Was hoping someone was running this setup and knew it did/didn’t work.

Then figure the I.D. of the handguard and the O.D. of the gas block. My rifles don't use an adjustable gas block there wasn't any need for one to run my suppressor.

That's pure BS, right there.  You are correct, thinking it's BS, too.

While the Atlas S is a slightly different than the Atlas R, I have a Superlative Arms AGB and it fits just fine (15" set-screw version).

Ty   It does fit without issue.
