    Install an AR barrel and put the gas block upside down.

    We are happy to work with a distributor in New Zealand to import these rifles. We will not be selling directly to individuals internationally.

    Gas blocks are prohibited in NZ as far as I know

    There barrel manufacturers that can make the AR barrels without the gas port.

    Troy PAR's are about to be banned in NZ if the govt gets there way with the second round of gun laws.

    Spectre has said they’re planning on making a low profile gas port block sometime down the road.

    This is low priority. You can just put your normal low profile gas block on backwards to block the gas port, or just run without even.

    I would hope its low priority. I was just saying that you had mentioned it and if gas block are prohibited in NZ then it would be an option down the road. Right now you need to dedicate as much time to making receiver sets as humanly possible. There’s a vacuum that these will help fill right now. My plan is to either run the gas block backwards as you suggest or have my machine shop spin up a couple quick barrel sleeves to block it off.
