    It actually is forged with the split... but you can see where the set screws failed, I don't think I torqued them down too much, just hand tight with an Allen wrench. 5 shots and the bolt didn't cycle. Put the gun on safe and the muzzle down and the gas block slid to the brake... cheap ass gas block.
    Got ya, was it aluminum or steel? I heard of similar issues with after market aluminum gas blocks although my wife's rifle has 1 ( knock on wood ) it's proven to be a solid performer for $15

    Received, finally, a replacement striker safety for my Glock which broke. Been waiting almost 2 weeks, rather impatiently

    Today I sold a rifle for my father, listed a couple other guns for him as well and installed a new and improved striker blocker in my comp gun which was all FUBAR

    Been a long work week, but a pretty good gun week. I picked up a new handgun on Tuesday and I'm picking up another one today. I ordered 8K .224 pills yesterday (not all for me) and I might get a chance to go shooting this weekend. I'll have 3 new handguns that I haven't gotten to shoot yet.

    Picking up a G17 RTF2 today. Not sure why. I really want a 19 or 26, but someone offered it to me and I've always liked the look of the RTF frame and fish gills.

    Nice! I'm considering revisiting the "dark side" and may end up with one today. :madgrin:
