It's kind of hard to get a good picture of, but there is powder residue that blows out the front of my gas block. Is this normal? This is the first stainless barrel I've had, and I never noticed this on the parkerized guns I've shot.

That's because the carbon and the park are the same color.
The amount you have there is no cause for concern.
