Re: Adjustable Low Profile Gas Blocks
@FNBrowning I'd suggest doing some research and taking a look at how the majority of professional sport shooters setup their AR15's, then if you have more doubts or questions creating another thread to prevent this one from being further derailed.
I'm still no closer to reaching a consensus on whether to go with an adjustable or non adjustable gas block?!?

Re: Adjustable Low Profile Gas Blocks
Go with PDH's advice.
Get a mail-spec low profile one for now, if your shooting develops to the point where you will want to tinker with the adjustable one there will be a market to sell the mil-spec one.
He shoots AR a lot, and if he has not tinkered with the adjustable one then the rest of us probably won't need to.
If you like to tinker and plan on playing with loads and buffers and all those things then go adjustable one time as you will eventually go that way if only to tinker. (or if you adding a suppressor open to correction on this but it might need to be adjustable if you are doing that. )

Re: Adjustable Low Profile Gas Blocks
Seems only DSG have stock of non adjustable low profile gas blocks. Tried CIS, Tac HQ, Spartan Arms, Hailstorm, Bernhard Agencies.
Seems like low profile gas blocks and free float handguards are hens teeth in SA at the moment!

Re: Adjustable Low Profile Gas Blocks
Do you have the rifle already? if your rifle has an A2 post it can be cut, by a gunsmith, to fit the handguard.
did you call hailstorm? http://www.hailstormza.com/Handguards_c_89.html website shows stock on the free float HG
maybe give Duane from 480bc a buzz, he organized me a free float HG last year and was able to get a nordic arms low profile gas block.
