Adjustable Gas Block - Need Recommendations

[LRRPF52]

Well now I am curious now since I am a case study of one. Has anyone on here had an adjustable gas block plug up on them.

I have had them carbon-weld, to where penetrating oil did not help me, and I broke wrenches, stripped out the tiny screw head.

I’ve heard some trying certain high-temp greases, but the gas block gets really hot from bore temperature and pressure evacuating through it and the gas tube.

This is why I tend to steer away from them nowadays. If they are farther away from the chamber, like RLGS and ELGS, then the temps and pressures are lower and easier to deal with.

SOTAR had a really good recent video where he bore-scoped 2 LE department carbines and you could clearly see erosion of the gas adjustment screw as well. Looked like it had been blow-torched....because it had.
