GPT (Gas tube Pin Tool) is a jig tailor made for installing and removing the gas tube roll pin on an AR15/M16 low profile gas block. Machined in 6061 aluminum and Type III hard coat anodized, GPT makes installing the gas tube pin on a low profile gas block painless. GPT is designed to be stable and surefooted, but it is no larger than it has to be, in order to retain a reasonable small footprint on the crowded workbench. Most low profile gas blocks don't have flats, and are hard to hold steady without requiring 3 hands to install the diminutive gas tube roll pin. GPT enables the user to install the gas tube roll pin, and remove it as well with ease. Forward Controls Design (FCD) made its base thick and wide for stability, its base is rebated to allow the user to clamp it down in a vise. Thoughtful touches can be found on the GPT, from the scalloped finger access recess to the soft, rounded corners and edges, even its green color has a purpose. Most gas blocks are black, FCD wanted GPT to be anything but, as Forward Controls Design found it more difficult to work on a black gas block that sits in a black jig. GPT's green color provides a pleasant contrast and makes the black gas block stand out. With a small Neodymium magnet placed on the gas block, it's powerful enough to stand the gas tube roll pin can upright, perpendicular to the gas tube, above the gas tube pin. With one hand holding the gas block steady in the GPT, one can start tapping on the gas tube roll pin to get it started. GPT is a collaboration between Modern Armory and Forward Controls Design. Modern Armory's version can be found here https://modernarmory.net/GPT-Gas-Tube-Pin-Tool_p_609.html Compatible with most gas blocks including Modern Armory, Forward Controls Design's GBF (Gas Block, Forward Controls), BCM, Rainier, VLTOR, Knight's Armament, Badger Ordnance, Daniel Defense, SLR, or other low profile gas blocks based on the original Crane design. Please measure your low profile gas block dimensions, as some are longer than others. GPT is made for Crane Mk12 pattern low profile gas blocks, the length of which is 1". GPT can be modified to accommodate longer gas blocks. If you're unsure, please contact the gas block manufacturer, below are the compatible gas block dimensions: MAX gas block length: 1.00 MAX gas block height: 1.35 Known incompatible low profile gas blocks: Aero, Luth AR, and DPMS, and adjustable gas blocks.

Herramienta imprescindible para instalar el pasador del tubo de gas en tu AR-15/M16
La herramienta GPT (Gas tube Pin Tool) es un dispositivo diseñado específicamente para instalar y quitar el pasador del tubo de gas en un bloque de gas de perfil bajo AR15/M16. Fabricada en aluminio 6061 y anodizada con un recubrimiento duro tipo III, la GPT facilita la instalación del pasador del tubo de gas de manera sencilla y eficiente.
Características destacadas:
- Diseño ergonómico: Su base gruesa y ancha proporciona estabilidad, y está diseñada para ser fácil de manejar sin ocupar demasiado espacio en tu banco de trabajo.
- Adaptabilidad: Compatible con la mayoría de los bloques de gas, incluyendo Modern Armory, GBF (Gas Block, Forward Controls), BCM, Rainier, VLTOR, Knight's Armament, Badger Ordnance, Daniel Defense, SLR, y otros bloques de gas de perfil bajo basados en el diseño original de Crane.
- Facilidad de uso: Con un pequeño imán de Neodimio en el bloque de gas, puedes mantener el pasador del tubo de gas en posición vertical mientras lo instalas, lo que facilita el proceso.
- Colores contrastantes: La GPT tiene un color verde que no solo es atractivo, sino que también proporciona un buen contraste con los bloques de gas, que suelen ser negros.
La herramienta GPT es una colaboración entre Modern Armory y Forward Controls Design. Si bien está diseñada para bloques de gas de perfil bajo del patrón Crane Mk12, puede modificarse para adaptarse a bloques más largos. Si no estás seguro de la compatibilidad, se recomienda medir las dimensiones de tu bloque de gas.
Dimensiones compatibles:
- Longitud máxima del bloque de gas: 1.00"
- Altura máxima del bloque de gas: 1.35"
Ten en cuenta que los bloques de gas de perfil bajo Aero, Luth AR, DPMS y los bloques de gas ajustables no son compatibles. La herramienta GPT es la solución perfecta para facilitar la instalación y extracción del pasador del tubo de gas, eliminando la necesidad de tener tres manos para realizar el trabajo.
