BRT EZTune Gas Tube - Pistol

The Black River Tactical EZTune Gas Tube in pistol-length configuration addresses the most challenging gas tuning scenario in the AR-15 platform: short-barreled rifles and pistols running suppressors. Pistol-length gas systems on 10.3 to 11.5 inch barrels generate extreme backpressure when suppressed, often resulting in violent cycling, excessive blowback to the shooter's face, and accelerated component wear. The EZTune pistol tube provides critical gas restriction at the source without requiring adjustable gas blocks that add weight, complexity, and potential failure points to already compact builds.

Short-barreled suppressed rifles face unique challenges due to minimal dwell time and high port pressures required for reliable unsuppressed function. When a suppressor adds backpressure to this already aggressive gas system, the result can be punishing recoil and reliability issues. The EZTune pistol tube's precision-machined orifice reduces gas flow to manageable levels while maintaining sufficient pressure for consistent extraction and ejection. This proves essential for pistol-length systems where the abbreviated gas tube length leaves little room for error in gas regulation.

Installation mirrors other EZTune variants, requiring only a gas tube roll pin punch and completing in under 10 minutes. Black River Tactical's sizing recommendations account for the extreme pressures inherent in pistol-length systems, helping shooters select appropriate port sizes for their specific barrel and suppressor combinations. With 5,000-10,000 round service life, the pistol-length EZTune provides the most practical gas tuning solution for SBRs and AR pistols where traditional adjustable gas blocks would require frequent handguard removal in already tight spaces.
