Can anyone recomend A gas block that I can turn off when shooting sub-sonic ammo?

Do you want one with a screw that's fully adjustable or just an on/off lever?

I think one with A lever would be just fine. Any suggestions?

The Noveske might be what you want, but they are $$$:L http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/n=y/pid=31990/Product/AR_15_M16_SWITCHBLOCK_ADJUSTABLE_GAS_BLOCK?avad=avant

There are many others with set screw adjustment, the JP and Yankee Hill Machine (YHM) that are cheaper.

Thanks Ranger, that's the one I think I'll go with. As far as price, It's A little late to get cheap now.

Warning on the JP - adjustment is trial and error. There are no indicator marks to tell you whether you are on the right setting. If you expect to go back and forth between two settings, this is probably not the ideal choice. If you plan on using your gun for serious work, you don't want to find it under/over gassed because you've been fiddling with the gas block.
