POF Dictator Adjustable Gas Block .223/5.56 Low Profile Steel

The POF Dictator Adjustable Gas Block transforms any AR-15 platform into a precisely tuned system, eliminating over-gassing issues that plague standard rifles. This low-profile gas block allows shooters to optimize their rifle's performance across different ammunition weights and suppressor configurations. Fine-tuning gas flow reduces bolt carrier group velocity, minimizes brass ejection distance, and extends component life significantly.

What Makes This Different

Unlike fixed gas blocks that force shooters to accept whatever gas pressure the manufacturer provides, the Dictator features tool-free adjustment capability accessible from the front of the rifle. The proprietary adjustment mechanism provides 9 distinct settings, allowing precise tuning without removing handguards or accessing the barrel nut. This eliminates the guesswork found in other adjustable gas blocks that require counting clicks or estimating positions.

Key Features

• Tool-free adjustment with 9 distinct gas flow settings
• Low-profile design fits under most free-float handguards
• Machined from 4140 steel with nitride finish for corrosion resistance
• Compatible with .223/5.56 barrels featuring .750" gas block journals
• Set screw and clamp-on mounting system for secure installation
• Front-accessible adjustment dial eliminates handguard removal
• Suppressor-ready design optimizes performance with sound suppressors

Field testing demonstrates the Dictator's ability to tame over-gassed rifles that exhibit excessive recoil, premature brass extraction, and accelerated bolt carrier wear. Competition shooters benefit from reduced muzzle rise and faster follow-up shots, while suppressor users can eliminate the harsh cycling common with standard gas systems. The adjustment range accommodates everything from lightweight 55-grain ammunition to heavy 77-grain match loads without reliability concerns.
