Any supplier i should stay away from or are they the same from everyone.
Not that they are in stock too many places anyway.

The only bad gas tube I have ever seen or heard of is one that was bent by the installer.

Basically, it comes down to whether you want a black or a stainless one, and you want to check if the seller includes the roll pin.  Plenty of places have them in stock if you look around.

Fulton Armory
Hamlund Tactical
Surplus Ammo
JoeBobs
Brownell's
BCM

Those are just what I found looking around real quick.  Hamlund has historically been the cheapest that I have found.  $11.99 roll pin included, but they never have black ones.

A lot of times you'll never know what brand the tube is.  Many shops sell them repackaged in a zip lock bag, or loosely.

I bought mine from Brownells and it's been fine.  They're pretty sturdy pieces of metal.
