Thinking adjustable gas block for a BHW 6x45 barrel I have on the way. Any recommendations for a .936 dia. ? Not a lot of choices for that size and wasn't planning on near a Franklin for one but seems that is gonna be close to what I will have to cough up. So wanting feedback on brand/model and where to buy? I have looked some at Brownell's and Midway but than has been the extent of my search thus far.
Thanks in advance.
Respectfully,
Dennis

I like SLR. The adjustment screw has click adjustments and has a stop built in to keep you from backing out too far. Just a well thought out piece of gear.
Not cheap, but they work.

Thanks auk1124, was kinda leaning towards the SLR. Forgot to mention I would prefer a clamp on model but seems according to Brownell's the SLR clamp on .936 has been discontinued and I suppose finding one from another vendor is a pipe dream kinda like the story of my life.

SD, Joe Bob Outfitters claims to have the clamp on .936 SLR in stock for 114 bucks, if you ultimately decide to go that route. I have bought an item or two from them in the past without issue.
Edit to add, one other thing about SLR, they can be a pretty tight squeeze under a handguard, if that is the direction you are going. I think SLR has their dimensions on their website somewhere.

Don't see the actual dimensions, but if you go this direction, on their website SLR says the clamp on .936 needs 1.44 inches of inner diameter space. https://slrrifleworks.com/sentry-9-clamp-on-adjustable-gas-block/I'm sure Seekins probably lists their inner diameter for that handguard somewhere.

Have a look at Superlative Arms, they have both set screw and clamp on models in multiple diameters.

Mark, thank you, yes I have looked at them also. Brownell's has both in stock I believe and roughly same price as SLR.
auk1124.....ID of the Seekins mentioned above is 1.780" give or take .010. I have one on hand plus on a couple other uppers.

RTBA has the SLR .936 adjustable gas block for $107.95.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
