I'm putting together a Valkyrie with a .875 x 2" gas block journal. It is a +2 system so the gas block will show and I want it to look cool, because I am vain as hell with my guns. The only .875 extended gas blocks I can find are blocky and ugly and I dont want to go standard length because there will be a huge gap between the block and the fluting on the barrel.
Does anyone have a mill that could take this
And mill it to this
So basically just milling some nice looking cutouts in the sides. No need to square off the rounded top or sides or anything. I would like the cutouts to extend as close to the top and the bottom of the block as possible though. I have zero clue how much this would cost so it may be pointless to ask if it is expensive. Doesn't seem like it would be hard or take a long time if you had a mill though. Is this something that could be done without turning a $40 gas block into a ridiculously expensive gas block?
