I had a nice stainless match grade barrel in hand and tried to put a Larue gas block on it. The gas block would not fit. For whatever reason, I assumed the gas block to be undersized. But rather than ruining it with a hammer or posting bile on the interwebs, I mailed the parts for the upper to Larue with a letter describing the build and the project I had embarked upon. A lady from Larue called and said that the gas block was the correct size, but the barrel was slightly oversized. So for a $25 gunsmithing fee, Larue custom fitted one of their gas blocks to my out of spec barrel and assembled the whole upper. Then just to be nice guys, they colored my stainless barrel flat black and mailed the completeed upper back to me.
That is darned good customer service for a problem they never created.
