RN> Just as a matter of interest,why does it even have an adjustable
RN> gas port ?
   Isn't the theory that as the port becomes dirty you can turn it on so it
   will keep cycling?  Sometimes cleaning it in a battle situation is not
   the best of ideals so by having the adjustable port you can keep the gun
   functioning until you can clean it.
   I have the FN and I like it.  I keep the port turned down to the lowest
   adjustment so I can keep the recoil to a minimum and the gun still
   cycles.
RN> Believe me,you would not want to trust your life to one.
   I personally would trust one of these over the M-15 which I used in
   1966.
