Has anyone here made their own gas block or modified an existing one?
For the build I'm doing, I'm trying to use up some of the existing parts I have.
My hope is to take one of the Aluminum quadrail gas blocks I've removed from other rifles and modify it on my mill to be a low profile.
I looked at some LP gas blocks and most are steel, but some are AL. For a carbine or pistol length gas system I wouldn't consider this but since its rifle length it might be safe enough since some manufacturer is putting their ass on the line selling one.
I have not done this before but I'm curious to get some insight before I start making chips on the mill.
Thanks.
