    Bedding the gas block will stop any leaks..Anderson lowers with an Aero mil spec upper have fit very well for my builds..SOLGW receivers are my favorite..Did you head space your bolt and barrel?? If a person waits for holidays it is worth to wait for specials for up-graded triggers, receivers, BCG's, charging handles, etc like Geissele, SOLGW, BCM, etc..Forward control design is also my go to lower parts manufacturer..Use Colt detents with the FCD pivot and take down pins makes them very smooth to open and close..CMG does make a reliable lower parts kits..For an over gassed rifle I would recommend the BRT EZTUNE Gas Tube tubes..Good advice and video, well done...

I just ordered another setup from stag to put my Noveske 12.5" CHF chrome lined barrel on it and that's gonna be my EDC, SHTF, truck gun. I use the Hux Worx with the new key-mo QD Dead Air mount.

They can't "consistently leak" anyways, even if you did get a looser one, once it carbon cakes up in there, no more leak. It's a non-issue whatsoever.

Yes, a good factory seal is far, far better than hoping your parts seal together with enough use. No, being in the army does not give a credibility boost. Half the mike golfs I talk to have been giving the wrong answers for decades and would rather die being wrong before ever looking at a TM to make sure.

      @@Oxykobl when you say Riveted do you mean the sling swivel? I have never seen a riveted gas block, I’ve seen taper pins aka a proper front sight base, like the M16/m4, and the “Block2” runs a taper pin. But I’ve never seen one riveted.

    They seal up regardless. I’ve got a couple FCD GBs, nothing special. Obviously better than the traditional $20 ones lol. The TA gas tubes were much more important to me , now that’s worth the money

      @@shootintheshtpodcast yea thats cool and all but ARs have always ran great before FCD gas block. I have a cheap SOLGW barrel and I took a cheap aero GB that fits waaaay tighter than my FCD gb. I didn’t even bother using the FCD. But to play devils advocate, on my main HD, the FCD fits amazing. I still rather run a FSB 🤝

      @@mrRoverkane I have 5 aero gb’s sitting in my drawer because they are loose. I’ve yet to find one that fits a barrel properly. If you have a tight aero and a loose FCD then go play the lottery. You’re the luckiest man I’ve ever met. I’ve seen far too many guns with loose gas blocks and they’re always aero and BA. I would recommend running what is tightest. If you can support your barrel off a gas block that’s tight. Send FCD an email and tell them what’s wrong. They’ll send you a new one. I would just make sure your gas block doesn’t leak. That you will see carbon coming out the sides. That’s where you’ll see faults. I recommend always going with what makes your AR more gas efficient. That’s what will give you the best performance

    Someone's been shooting AKs! I love this mount with the PRO. Just put one on a 300 blackout.
