Garand gas plug question

[GAGunguy]

Question: I got the upgraded gas plug for my Garand, but I cant remember if I put it in or not. Can anyone of you experts tell if I have the new one in the bag, or the old one.

How do you tell them apart?

Arent they adjustable? I would imagine the new plug would have an adjustment screw or something?

Some are but the Garand Gear one is just ported if I remember correctly.

Our ported gas plug does NOT vent gas like a vented gas plug. The secret is the hollowed out area in the base of the plug which increases the initial volume of the gas cylinder. By increasing the volume, the peak pressures are reduced without the need to vent the gas.

That's neat. I really need to get one for mine.
