[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3827682, member: 48072"] I use calipers to determine how much gap is needed at the shoulder between barrel and block. It isn't a perfect solution, but darn if it won't get you where you need to be the first time around. [Distance from shoulder to center of gas port in barrel - Distance from gas block edge to center of port in gas block = amount of gap needed]. Of course I've head that sliding a credit card in there usually works and is faster too. However in this case, I'm going to bet my $5 of Taco Bell lunch money that it is the extra heavy buffer as has already been stated. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
