I want to get one of the 10.5 inch 300 blackout commandos from PSA. It's a "kino" gas system, so a regular pistol length gas block and a dummy front sight post. I couldn't change out the gas block for an adjustable one because it's stuck behind the front sight post.

I've only ever shot suppressed with adjustable gas blocks. Will this setup spit a bunch of gas in my face? Would be shooting subs most of the time but maybe some supers, all suppressed.

I want to make a leather holster with a flap for a revolver. It will be used in very cold weather so I am hesitant to do the traditional 100% wax dip many experienced holster makers use. I think the wax would become too brittle in a below freezing environment. Would mixing in 100% neatsfoot oil solve this issue? maybe in a 3-1 or 2-1 wax to neatsfoot ratio? If I did go this route is there risk of oil transfer from the holster flap to the wood grips of my revolver? Looking for some real world experience here.
