PM tp555 on this board. Paladin Machine Services != Paladin Armory so far as I know.

I had a JP on my 16" whisper. I didn't really like it becuase getting it set was always a guess and it wouldn't shut completely off. I put one from tp555 on my 10" and love it.

So its a screw attach gas block .. I am not seeing how this adjusts 3 ways for gas regulation. forgive me.

The screw is the adjustment. There is a dimple that is hard to see. But it is currently in the closed position. When the notch is vertical, it is in the low pressure (sub-sonic) position. And when the screw is turned 180 degrees from where it is now, it is in the high pressure (super-sonic) position.

The block is held to the barrel by two hex screws underneath the barrel.

It is a solid arrangement. That particular barrel is one inch diameter towards the breach (left) and 3/4 from block to muzzle where it has 5/8-24 threading and a thread protector. It's a 16" barrel made from a Douglas Premium blank with 1:8 twist.

I forgot to mention that the adjustment screw (really a pin) has detents for the three positions just like the selector lever on an M16. So it is held positively in each of the three positions.
