AR-15 help

[hotshott2289]

Hey guys I've been working on my ar changing out the stock trigger and grip. I also got a quad rail free float tube to replace my old free float but I ran into a little issue. I got the old one off and the gas block off but I am having trouble getting the gas tube out. Any suggestions/help would be great

have you tried soaking it with a penetrating oil? or WD40

It is not held by anything, so it must me gumbed or carboned up

soak it and grab hold of it with pliers (not to hard, so you don't damage it) and slowly wiggle it out

It should come out easy

Got it! Had a little bit of carbon built up on it

Thanks for the help! Learned quite a bit tinkering around the last couple weeks. Now getting ready to start my own build.. Ordered a bunch of stuff last night can't wait to get started!
