Thanks for this, I was doing completely wrong setting up for my suppressor! I was doing turns instead of clicks and close to open instead of opened to close!
Yes, you can also do it reverse, close to open. Start with 2 clicks open from close. Open 2 clicks at a time until you get the bolt hold open, then open 2 clicks more for reliability
When you turn it all the way clockwise/tight does it shut off the gas system completely, thereby essentially turning your AR into a bolt action? Asking for the M5 .308... I might want to do that in the future, occasionally setting it that way.
@@Texan2a Old post but of course you tune with the suppressor attached, how else will you know when you've minimized blow-back? Most suppressor designs will result in more blowback then running unsuppressed with a given ammo, so you need to tune appropriately for each, as well as for each ammo type (load, weight).
I don't have a crazy amount on mine somewhere around 500 but it's ran flawless super easy to adjust and tune with my suppressor I keep looking to see anybody's used it hard time abuse
Ive got one that wont let me cycle at any stage, wide open or not. Shows signs of gas leak around the block but ive had it off and on 3 times and checked the gas tube pin and port lineup.. doesnt help.
My 308 I think the recoil knocks the catch loose, I have found I can hit the stock on the table and it will send the bolt home. The reason I say this is because I couldn’t get my 308 to cycle with the gas block all the way open. Is it 15 clicks for the 308 and 15 or just the 15. When I took the gas block back off I looked inside with 15 clicks and noticed the adjustment screw is still visible in the gas port, it took about 18 to 20 to where I couldn’t see it anymore. I suspect I may have been slightly off when installing the gas block but I’m not sure I rechecked the alignment and have the block out 18 clicks.
I have an update this is not what was happening, what happened was the bolt wasn’t going all the way to the rear, it was catching on the magazine follower. I used a slow motion camera to watch the ejection pattern which was right at the 6 o clock position. I sent the upper back to the manufacturer and they found the bolt was out of spec, it wouldn’t hold up the bolt carrier but I wasn’t sure if that was a valid test on an ar10 due to the heavier bolt. Well get it back with a new bolt and it stands up on end supporting the carrier. Took it out today the first couple 1 round tests didn’t go as expected but it was ejecting at the 3 o clock position high side of properly gassed. After a few rounds it started working better, found for some reason it doesn’t like Aguilar ammo, cycles Norma, PMC and Winchester soft point fine. I also noticed with my metal mag it locked back to the rear more than with the mag pull mag.
I also noticed my gas block wasn't clear of the set screw after 15 turns. Fired it at 23 clicks open trying to get lock back. Is it possible I blew my bolts gas rings? Im not sure if this Faxon ever passed the stand up test.
I am surprised at tuning from open down instead of from midpoint, seems like a waste of ammo to start from either end since you already know the outcome of each. If you start at the midpoint (turns/clicks) then you can adjust up/down depending on the outcome.
This is on my "to-get" list next month when I get the $$$!!! I really, really one this for shooting with a can! Tired of the gas in the face... really need to tame the back-blast; burnt IMR 4831 does NOT taste good. And BY THE WAY... I don't know what kind of voodoo you guys are doing up there but the 20" M5E1 upper (all Aero) in 6.5 is STUPID accurate! I mean, semi auto's are not supposed to be this accurate! I get consistent 1.25-1.5" groups at 200m with this thing (home-brewed 80% lower, AIM SSTAT trigger, Vortex Viper 6.5-20x)... of course, my ammo is good (recycled Starline fire-formed to its chamber, 147g ELD-M, powder measured to 0.05gr) but damn, less than 3/4 MOA from a semi auto that I was able to build for less than $1600? Man, you guys absolutely ROCK! So, I have to know, is this accuracy indicative of this series of rifle/upper, all your products or maybe something along the lines of that odd car or truck that was just built just right, taken care of and a result of the right materials/manufacturing/assembly/user care and able to make it to 1 million miles? Either way, it reeks of quality but the sheer accuracy blew my mind. I was expecting 1 to 1.5 MOA at best but when I shot 0.70 that first day, I was blown away! I have bolt guns that don't do that good! Anyway, if I got a 1-off, fine, not gonna burn that barrel out, got others, save this one for the boogaloo (lol). If this IS typical of the accuracy, man, you got me as a customer for life! Anyway, see y'all on my next build... a 16" lightweight 308 carbine! Go ahead, call me a fanboy, I don't mind...

You can tell by looking at the gas block. Of unable to see it you'll have to remove the handguard. If it's not adjustable there will be no screw for adjustment
Got mine installed yesterday, it has 28 clicks tho, I was doing some range test and on 28th was still under gassed, it was installed by pro gunsmith. 3oz buffer, no gas leaks, carbine setup. So does it have to be 15 clicks even if I can get 13 more?

@@gediminasjaramaitis6353 Hi, so it has more than 20. BUT - you operate between 0 and 15, mine has best perfromance at 7th click counting from 0 - I run 10,5 sbr with A-Tec monoblok 40-3 suppressor, I guess the 6-8 would be the goldilocks zone
From new, my Aero Precision did not reload every ammo. After 200 shots it stopped reloading my favorite. The gas block was set 19 clicks from closing. (and you state that at 15 it is maximally open) Clicks from 0 to 32kliks. At 27 clicks it's getting better, but it's still not good.... What's wrong? gas key in the lock clean.
So tuning this with .223 PMC Bronze is probably smart, a weaker range ammo. Finding out where it reliably cycles and then clicking it back 2-3 clicks counterclockwise in order to allow it to cycle hotter ammo (Xtac 5.56, Green tip Winchester etc) Someone correct me
I’m probably wrong but I think you would want to tune it with heavier ammo, which requires less blowback to cycle than a lighter round would Tune with heavy ammo, that way when you run 55gr it will for sure lock back If you tune with 55gr then when you use 77gr it would send the bolt back harsher? And the heavier round will definitely cycle if you tune for 55gr

@Frank doesn’t hurt to dimple your barrels they make jigs you can dimple with or do it by hand. Most barrels come with one dimple if you lock your gas bock in you can use a whole punch and mark the other one and just drill a tiny amount until you make a crater done!!!! Take it all apart and clean the block and studs with degreaser and apply red lock tight to studs and torque them to 15- 20 inch pounds. Torquing them to tight will actually cause harmonic issues and bullets will suffer from slight turbulence.
I could not adjust my M5E1 build in 308 to properly cycle. Aero 20" .308 CMV Barrel, Rifle Length, Aero Adjustable Gas Block .750 Low Profile, Aero Melonite Rifle Length Gas Tube. I have to research where I got the A2 buffer system but it looks like a heavy duty spring. Today I will remove the hand guard and examine the gas block for signs of gas leaking / alignment issues.

Oh, I had to pin the muzzle device on the barrel because of local laws. Bummer.
Same issue. Mine is 20 inch criterion barrel rifle length gas with their headspaced BCG. Aero M5 carbine tube spring and buffer. Using M 80 fmj. Aero adjustable gas block is all the way open.most of the time it would either stove pipe or just enough to toss the empty case out barely and not pick up the new round. And wont lock back. My guess is that aero calls for the block to go up to the shoulder. My barrel is dimpled so it has that tiny gap. Im putting on a regular gas block today to try it
The gas port on the Aero (ballistic advantage) barrels are notorious for being undersized and need to be drilled out to correct size. I had the same issue with my 18" 308 barrel. Once i had a gunsmith drill the correct size, my M5E1 was cycling like clockwork. I forgot what size needs to be drilled but I'm sure a google search will help.
You were saying two clicks at a time but at 2 minutes and 17 seconds you did three clicks closed and it 3 minutes and 4 seconds you did three clicks open while telling everyone to do two clicks and it not a big deal but I just letting you know It's good to do as you're saying when trying to teach people how to use something
@@jeremyhesaid no just pointing out that It's a do as I say not as I do kind of video but I don't need the directions I know how to adjust them I have 4 different rifles that have aero adjustable gas blocks
Kirk I have a air block installed on my ar-10 when I hired someone to build it. I have a large kickback still. It isn't adjustable, so could it be that he installed it wrong?
That because the new longer adjustment screw has longer flutes in it to engage the detent. In 2020 they switched them and sent previous purchasers new ones, but haven't updated their instructions.
Do you guys know how they come out of the box? I installed one on a 6.5CM I built using a mix of Aero and other parts, the gun cycles fine on the first shot but either fails to load the 2nd round or it light primer strikes every time on the 2nd shot. It seems to be ejecting around 4-4:30 so I assume it's just the block not being opened up enough. I didn't adjust it before I took it out (hadn't seen this video yet). So I'm just wondering if I can tighten from the current setting or if I need to go all the way open like in this video and start from there. Thanks in advance
Junk. Can't get enough gas through to cycle without a supressor installed. I've tried everything. Piss poor design. Can't be serviced without being removed from the barrell. Tiny Screws stripped out long before reaching 40 in lb specs. Had to cut it off with angle grinder. So aggravating. Put on a regular Daniel Defense. Runs great open or suppressed. Adjustable gas blocks are a failure point and a waste of money for 99.9% of guns. Especially this one.
Just tuned my aero gas block today following these instructions. Exact scenario, cycles perfectly. Thanks!
Just what I needed. Just got the .750 adjustable gas block for my barrel and 308 build. Looking forward to this!
