Thanks for shaing your experience.
I just purchased a 16-inch A3 J&T "300 Whisper" upper and I have not decided what I want to do with it yet. I really need to strip the barrle down and check the profile to see what would be involved with adding one of the JP Enteprizes gas blocks back in the pistol location.
I have a
SWS Float tube that would give the carbine a Dissipator look and when I add a can it would look more balanced.
I plan to initially just purchase and install the JP Adjustable Gas block and perhaps add a PIG-Tail gas tube to see if that works at all. I figure if it doesn't work I can always use the pigtail on my AR-15 pistol (that has a 11.5-inch barrel) and then move the gas block back to pistol.
I have not started any major projects in quite some time but with those darned liberals in Washington they are making me think about some new builds!
