Come with an an adjustable gas port. Now I have shot just about everything under the sun and have a pretty decent working knowledge of firearms but I am by no means a gunsmith or engineer so this question might be one of those hey stupid that was a stupid question.
Anyway it seems to me like an adjustable gas port is a wonderful idea that would allow the broadest range of ammunition choices and extend your military's choice of small arm's life cycle.
Why is this not more common? Is it because the average grunt is going to set it to the maximum setting for maximum functional reliability but also batter their weapon to death by doing this?
Why no adjustable settings on rifles such as AR series, M1A series, AK series and to a lesser extent certain civillian hunting autos like say a Browning BAR?
It just seems like this added functionality would make for a much wider availability of ammunition choices for both military and civillian shooters alike.
