Strange length gas tube ?

Post by redtazdog »

I was looking through my extra parts and found two extra pistol length gas tubes and noticed
two diferent lengths :?
Both brand new but I'm now trying to figure out what the odd one goes too.

the odd one goes to me? I could always use spare parts.

Just kidding, mostly. I think one is just set in further than the other, maybe for a normal gas block, and one for an aluminum gas block, (i.e. one mil-spec), and the other an aftermarket like an adjustable block, or a low profile?

Looks like a gas tube specific to an adjustable gas block to me. Its about the right difference shorter.

I think the Olympic pistol gas system is slightly shorter than most.
