First, I am not affiliated with Gemtech in any way. I just saw this on Facebook and wanted to see what people's thoughts were on it.

Let us be the first to introduce you to the gun accessory that will change your life. The GEMTECH Suppressed Bolt Carrier will increase the reliability of any of your suppressed AR-Platformed firearms. The adjustable bolt carrier is a drop-in replacement and will allow the shooter to choose between suppressed and unsuppressed settings without any permanent modifications to the firearm. No longer will you need to change gas blocks, buffers, or any other components. Not only that, but with the GEMTECH Suppressed Bolt Carrier, there is a reduction in carrier speed and less felt recoil, bringing the cyclical rate of the suppressed rifle down to unsuppressed levels. And in some systems, testing has shown that it can actually bring it LOWER than unsuppressed levels.
But don't take our word for it. Try it for yourself. And once you do, you will want them in all your rifles.

If this works as advertised it might be a working alternative to an adjustable gas block, but at more than double the price.Quote:

The all new SBC allows the user to choose between a suppressed and unsuppressed setting. The shooter can enjoy increased reliability without altering the gas block, buffer or any other components.
Normally shooters use gas-buster charging handles, heavier buffers and an adjustable gas block to fight an overpressured system, but Gemtech has pushed things into the next generation with the SBC.
Built of S7 Steel for lighter weight and faster heat dissipation, and for erosion resistance, Gemtech’s patented SBC is an adjustable, drop-in fit for your AR platform rifle.
An even greater advantage provided by the SBC is increased reliability, reduction of carrier speed and lower felt recoil. In fact, on full auto the SBC reduces cyclic route down to the same level as if the weapon was unsuppressed. Some tests have produced cyclic rates even lower, though individual weapons and experience will obviously vary.
For more information on the SBC and other products from Gemtech, please visit Gem-Tech.com.

Is available in 5.56mm and 7.62mm
