AR15 gas valve update

I wont to thank all of you who helped in the repair of this machine. I drilled the gas block, taped to 10 32 put in a set screw and it work great. 100 rounds and no trouble and I can find my brass with out a metal detector.
Thanks a lot

Good deal. Cheaper than the $45 Midway wanted anyway.

How about taking some pic's and posting for others that may have this issue in the future.

Good thinking, a $1 set screw beats a $45 gas tube every day.
