Abstract
A gas block for a firearm has a main body and includes an adjustment screw. The adjustment screw in the gas block extends askew the longitudinal axis of the firearm when the gas block and adjustment screw are installed on the firearm. That is, a plane through the adjustment screw is neither coplanar with the longitudinal axis (i.e., bore axis) of the firearm nor perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the firearm. In this manner, the adjustment screw is accessible through multiple vents or mounting holes through the handguard, and screwing the adjustment screw into or out of the main body adjusts an amount of pressurized gas allowed to flow from a barrel of the firearm back to a receiver of the firearm.
