Whinging and complaining [on]
With all the fancy logos and everything... I REALLY wish barrel/Gas-blocks etc. came marked with a line for the dead center so it would make alignment that much easier. FAXON!!! Lads, LOVE your barrels (THere's a 16" 5R "Gunner Match" I'm dealing with here today... lovely barrel) but seriously, in the name of smart thinking and clever product distinguishment: put markings (long enough to be seen with the GB on and off) along the center-line of your barrel through the gas-port center-line and up on the shoulder. And gas-blocks, IMO, should just have the bloody line drawn straight up the front across the mouth/gas-tube port.
Sorry for the rant thread, I'm just having one of those days where I'm all thumbs and I don't have my dial calipers or tools to mark the center of a barrel like this outside of a Staedtler drafting pencil and a business card and it occurs to me this would make it SO mice for builders.
