Abstract:
Method and tool for promptly aligning the mating port of a gas block with the gas port of a rifle barrel. The prompt alignment of the mating port and gas port is accomplished by using an alignment tool have an alignment port and an alignment slot. The alignment tool is inserted into the gas block such that the alignment port is centered over the mating port and that a portion of the alignment tool protrudes from the gas block. The top surface of the alignment tool is marked circumferentially and the forward end of the gas block is marked perpendicular to the alignment slot. The alignment tool is then removed from the gas block and affixed to the rifle barrel such that the alignment port is centered over the gas port. The barrel is marked through the alignment slot in line with the circumferential marking on the top surface of the alignment tool. The alignment tool is removed and the barrel inserted through the gas block until the marking on the forward end of the gas block is aligned with the marking on the barrel.

Claim (Index 6):
A method for aligning the gas port of a rifle barrel with a gas block, said gas block having a forward end and rear end, a bore, and a mating port within the bore, comprising:\n inserting an alignment tool having an alignment port and alignment slot into the bore and centering the alignment port over the mating port; marking the top surface of the alignment tool where the forward end of the gas block meets the alignment tool; marking the forward end of gas block perpendicular to the alignment slot; removing the alignment tool from the gas block; affixing the alignment tool to the barrel and centering the alignment port over the gas port; marking the surface of the barrel through the alignment slot in line with the marking on the alignment tool and removing the alignment tool from the barrel; inserting the barrel through the bore of the gas block; and aligning the marking on the forward end of the gas block with the marking on the barrel.
