Has anyone tried the Warfighter upper receiver with the lever for adjusting gas flow when shooting suppressed?

I've had mine for a couple years almost. I love it and want another. Completely got rid of any blowback, it reduced felt recoil (my 16" mid barely moves now) and helps keep the guts cleaner. They still get dirty but not nearly as fast or as built up

Thanks! I understand they are not recommended for .300 Blackout but if I build a short upper in 5.56 I think I will spring for the Warfighter upper receiver.

I'd actually shoot Innovative an email and ask about WAR Uppers and 300BLK....their site says 5.56 but the demand for 300BLK has changed since they were released and it may not have been considered at the time.
I've got a 10.5" AR and I want a WAR for it because I'm sure the buffer and carrier are getting a workout as is
It's got three settings: unsuppressed, which allows a normal amount of gas through. Suppressed, which blocks about 80% or more of return gas, and then you can turn the switch in between those two and stop it entirely and single shot your AR if you desire.
