The Faxon AR-15 Adjustable Gas Block offers precise gas system tuning for barrels with a standard .625" diameter gas journal. Built to complement Faxon's own barrel line with a matching black luster finish, this lightweight gas block clamps securely to the barrel for reliable, repeatable adjustment on light-contour barrels and suppressed builds alike.
Features:
- Adjustable gas system
- High-strength steel construction
- Black finish to match Faxon barrels
- Secures with 3 Allen screws
- .625" gas journal diameter
- Drilled center profile for reduced weight
- Low profile design
- Gas tube roll pin not included
Three Allen screws clamp the block around the barrel instead of relying on a pair of straight-in set screws, spreading clamping force more evenly for a secure hold on light barrel contours. A drilled center profile trims extra weight from the block without compromising its ability to hold up to the pressure and heat of a running gas system, and the black finish is matched to Faxon's own barrel line for a consistent look across a full Faxon build from muzzle to gas block.
Faxon Firearms manufactures barrels and small parts for the AR-15 and AR-10 platforms, machining its gas blocks to complement the fit and finish of its own barrel lines.

Easy adjustment & stays clean. Nice quality.

Got this for a recent competition build with an 18" barrel and light weight BCG. Assembly with a gas tube is super simple like any AR. The parts fit tight & right. I used a borescope to line up the barrel port with the opening of the gas block. The finish of the gas block is very nice. The machining is very nice.
With one round in a magazine, I started off with the gas block closed & adjusted one click every round until the bolt would lock back. After a few hundred rounds everything was good. Went home cleaned things up. Back to the range the next day to run some comp stages and performed well for another few hundred rounds. In total I think there is 800 rounds through this gas block. Everything running well. I have heard adj. gas blocks can carbon lock if not cycled a little bit. So when done for the day, I have been adjusting a few clicks each direction. Overall very happy.
