Alex Fresa, guest, from NY, United States, asked on October 22, 2020

Can I use my original gas tube? Or do you recommend buying the tube and block?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Nick B., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 22, 2021

In most cases you can use your current gas tube. The models that come with a gas tube only come with a carbine length gas tube, so you will want to be sure that your barrel has a carbine length gas system if ordering any of the models that come with a gas tube.

Will this work with a 12” hand guard on a 20” .308 barrel?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Nick B., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 22, 2021

That will depend on the gas system length of the barrel. This gas block will not fit inside of a free float handguard. Please email us at TechSales@opticsPlanet.com with the make and model of your barrel and we will be able to confirm this for you.
