Wow! 16.150" is almost 1" too long for any rifle length gas system barrel that I own! Expert Answer

Rifle +1 gas tube by BP, Verified Owner, February 7, 2024

Product Info for Helix 6 Precision AR Gas Tube

The gas tube is one of the most important components to get correct when building an AR platform weapon. Typically, a stripped lower receiver is built with the primary intent of housing the AR upper receiver along with some lower parts kit. Helix 6 Precision went out and not only purchased all the major lower receiver OEM gas tube vendors and built Helix 6 own based on the fact that manufacturing a quality direct impingement gas tube is a complex task. What Helix 6 has accomplished with this simple yet solid design is a AR gas tube that will properly fit an AR upper with a short oversized gas block. The design features chamfered sides, a chamfered bolt face and a rounded butt where the gas block would naturally rest against. Our gas tube is designed to fit an AR with a short oversized gas block. If you're planning on modifying your AR platform after building it, this is a must.image
