OK, so I finally removed the hand guards, front sight post (PITA), and muzzle break. I'm ready to install a rifle length quad rail on my carbine but need to shop for a low profile gas block first.
From what I can tell, I can get one at almost any price range. Question - Is this one of those parts that "you get what you pay for?" I mean, I could spend maybe $30 and get the YHM or go for the VLTOR for about $60.
I'm more fond of the VLTOR as it just looks like a better quality part. However, I'll probably never see it again. Looks aside though, it is made of stainless whereas the YHM is not. I like having the peace of mind knowing that what's under the hood is top quality.
Is a gas block a gas block or can someone sell me on why I should get the VLTOR or any other high end gas block?
