No you’re correct. If your gasblock is vented, you would run a non vented tube (to be “correct”) because venting is taking place in the gas block.

If you gas block did NOT have venting holes, it would use a vented gas tube to accommodate for venting
Ah, okay, I'm now picking up what you're laying down.

So, in my rush to put the WASR back together, I've effectively added 3 more vents to an already vented block .... so in the meantime, I'll be on the search for an unvented gas tube to replace it and pull that puppy off and put it back where it came from.

Now, just for shits and giggles, I gotta ask, if I went to fire it in its current condition, what would happen? I'm just curious....

Nothing it would work fine for thousands and thousands and thousands of rounds with either gas tube, it’s irrelevant it will cause zero issues with either tube so if you like the vents and don’t wanna mess with taking off the upper Hg run it like that forever and a day. If you’re wanting to be super aesthetically correct for the country of origin or build etc throw a non-vented romanian tube on there Just to feel complete inside

I shall reward you by making you a mod for a day ... but you can only ban 1 person for 24hrs.

While I enjoy the warm & cuddly feeling of being complete inside (and also not giving the AK board of directors any reason to put Bengay in my boxers), I couldn't give 2 shits about minor "OE" aesthetics, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to Fubar the cycle/operation of the gas system.

Sometimes I blow stupid amounts of money to hunt down the correct part that is completely unnecessary to my weapons functioning well lol in fact sometimes it performs worse because i refuse to stray from the original pattern I.E. Hungarian AMD-65 wire folding stock and squared off pistol grips, but I’m a nerd

I’m watching an auction on GunBroker that has a day to go and is stupid low for what the item is with 1 bid. I know it’s stupid, I know someone’s going to bid snipe it up to above MSRP 15 minutes before the auction ends. I don’t know why I do this to myself. I said I’d never fuck around with another auction on GB again....

Caffeine and Octane tomorrow, err, uh, this morning early.

See y'allz there.
Did my version of octane & BBQ with @Jake earlier today since I have to leave out again tomorrow, he let me drive his bimmer (Full disclosure, I stalled it within the first 100 yds as I haven't driven a stick in a few yrs; I'm sure he was laughing at me while I tried to figure out where the clutch engaged). Hell, I'll be happy just to get back and get some dates lined up to do some track days!

View attachment 99209 on another note, what did this three slotted bastard come off of?
I have nothing to contribute to this post other than to say that I wish I would have thought of the egregious foot placement in my earlier threads, perhaps I would have received a more helpful audience earlier on ;)
