Pinned LoPro Gas Block

With a handguard extended over the gas block does it make the handguard really hot?

No, quite the opposite. You're covering a hot part with a cool part.

After all my indecision I finally bought all the stuff for my new upper. The guys at work pitched in and bought me a LMT 14.5" upper with a LaRue 11" handguard and lo pro gas block. Today I picked up some Troy sights and a new LMT bolt carrier group. I'm going to have Steve at ADCO pin the gas block and a Phantom 5C2 for me. Can't wait to shoot it!
