Love it, though it was a near thing. Just barely fit inside the Trybe handguard used in the build. A little scrape while settling it in, doesn't seem to rattle.

Don't bother with this adjustable gas block. It fouls far too easily and cleaning it is bear with the potential to easily ruin the entire gas block. Sure, you can buy Odin repair kits for $20, but then how far into ($$$) this piece of junk do you need to go? When the adjustment screw is fully removed, there is a side spring and ball that provide the notched "click" settings against the screw's profile when inserted. This spring is tiny and will easily come out and fall into the darkest corner of the screw hole where you can't see with the best of lighting. When reassembling, you're likely to not know that it has fallen out, only to have the adjustment screw damage the spring beyond repair upon reassembly. This is a terrible design that is beat hands down by SA adjustable gas blocks. They should honestly just give up and stop making this piece of junk, let alone charge $100+ for trash. I expected more from the Odin name, but I'm done with them now. It's all over-priced junk marketed as high-end.
Would recommend: No

To be fair to Odin, was used in 7.62x39 AR shooting Wolf, Tula Barnual, etc ammo. Lasted about 3 years and 3000 rounds before the gas would no longer divert to move the BCG, regardless of setting. Took apart and soaked in cleaner for several days, didn't resolve. (I also stripped one of the barrel lock screws, may fault)
Contacted Odin via email about above as they post no phone number. Sent about 5 emails over the course of two months, with no response. I'm fine even if they tell me it might be out of warranty or I'm using it out-of-the-design spec, but I think they should at least respond, which is why I'm giving them three star (average) rank.
So it's a good product and works ok, but it seems like it proved to be a $80 throwaway part, which is too expensive for that role. I replaced with cheaper Sekins.
The only other comment is the front facing adjustment means you need to be mindful of handguard length vs gas system, as pistol length gas system may be too deep to permit adjustment without having to remove the handguard.
You are also much closer to the muzzle when making adjustments. Not negatives, just so you know what you are getting into.
Would recommend: No

This was a well-maintained and manufactured product I would recommend it to anybody looking for adjustable gas block had all the proper wrenches for adjustment. Also with having a suppressor it was easy to adjust. I would recommend this product for anybody looking to add a suppressor.

The adjustment clicks are solid. This is a fantastic gas block. I enjoy eleverything Odin works makes and this is not a disappointment at all. Highly rec if you are looking for an adj gas block. This is my second one from them. The first one is on my dedicated 300 blackout that’s suppressed. I am putting this one on a reg 556. But I have around 5k rounds without fail on the blackout
Pros:
- easy to adjust
- it works
- price is right
- easy to install
- Finish and design
- adjustment is fast if needed
Would recommend: Yes

The squared off portion of the gas block on the side of the top sticks out too far and gets cuaght in the m-lock cut outs. If you have an anti rotation handguard this likely wont work as you will not be able to wiggle the hand guard around the protrusion to get it in place. Pretty disappointed. Parts are hard to come by right now and a low profile gas block should be able to fit in any reputable hand guard.
Pros:
- Dont know it's expensive and was not compatible with my setup
Cons:
- Not compatible with all handgaurds
Would recommend: No

Was having some intermittent issue with FTF and FTL on my .308. Using this gas block solved those problems and my .308 now shoots reliably. Thanks Odin.... if you are having the same type of prom lens I was, the Odin adjustable gas block is the way to go. The low profile makes clearance in the hand guard not a problem.

This is a great gas block that I highly recommend. All Odin Works products have superseded my expectations from barrels to handgaurds. Perfect way to add to a high end build. I would definitely buy again

I have one on my 3 gun setup and works like a charm. It is easy to adjust and fit / finish are perfect. I would recommend to anyone who loves to build their own rifles or just looking for an upgrade . I will be buying more for future builds.
