Gas Block Problem?

what happens if you close it another click or 2?

i'm about positive going with a heavier buffer/stiffer spring is gonna give the same symptoms of being over gassed and have it ejecting at the 2 o'clock versus less gas to get it more toward the 4 o'clock.

either way 3 o clock is great and i would roll with it
If I close it one or two clicks - I get FTF & no bolt lock open on last shot.

When I switch to heavier buffer or spring, I will have to open gb a few clicks (more gas) to compensate, but this will increase the dwell time and actually DECREASE o.p. at same setting per ARlife4me.

When I swap it out and test, I will report the actual results.

More dwell will make it softer shooting, but will slow down fire rate.
