I prefer to dimple my barrel when installing a gas block. Here I’m using a Kaw Valley Precision .625 profile jig for my Superlative Arms adjustable gas block on a @FaxonFirearmsOfficial 10.5” pencil profile 5.56 barrel with a 1:8 twist.
Alignment is everything. The jig makes that much easier. Don’t forget to use a quality carbide tipped drill bit or you’ll have a much harder time. Thread locker is OPTIONAL. I’m a go big, or go home kind of guy. I have no intention of taking this block off so red Loctite is my choice to keep the screws from backing out.

Awesome video! How did you know how far to go down drilling.
You just use a reaction rod in the vice?
Nice video

Finally someone who knows how to use a proper amount of loctite on a firearm 😂
