Noob Question about gas systems

[Slippers]

Haha I reached the same conclusion. You're the only person I've heard say this publicly. I find the vent portion inconsistent. But you can use it like the sentry without the venting feature, which I do. But I won't buy another one and prefer the SLR. The SLR has firm detent and easy to rebuild if necessary.

The problem with the non-venting settings on the superlative is that they are very few. You lose over half the adjustment range.

It's about 4.5 rotations, as I recall. The SLR is about 7.5 at fully open to closed (though the SLR has an additional 7 to make a completely open gas block super duper completely open). The range is greater with the SLR but I generally don't tune mine to the edge of performance since I use a variety of ammo. The superlative works fine enough on that setting... until it breaks like yours.

I would only purchase an SLR Sentry.

You should buy out the MicroMOA patents and make an improved version.

Arisaka adjustable gas block. I'd give it a go.
