What stores have small parts for sale to the public? I need a carbine length gas tube and wouldn't mind driving to Denton or Sherman or even Ardmore Sunday.

BPS Outfitters carries a lot of parts. I haven’t been in there in a while so don’t know what kind of stock they have right now. Might want to give them a call they’re in Sherman.

Bauer precision in Denton had some small parts last time I was there but that was several months ago.

Went to BPS in Sherman and they had two flavors, Aero and a brand I never heard of. Both were more than adequate and the price after tax was still less than buying online and shipping. The staff knew exactly where the part was on the shelf, the store was clean and well-staffed, and they had popular caliber ammo (although at current market price). I don't count the cost of fuel because I had to deliver some clothes to my Dad's church clothes closet and a part to him anyway. Thanks for the advice.

Sure thing, that store has grown big time. It used to be a pawn shop then they made a smaller portion of it into a gun store only then it grew and grew now they’ve converted the entire building beside just the rear to gun store. They’re even making the front side of it into a shooting range that should be open sometime soon. They’re my preferred FFL dealer. Have my WC receivers going there as we speak.

Yup, BPS is good people.

Just another plug for BPS.

I've been doing business with them for almost 2 decades... never a complaint.

I've been hanging around long enough, my son and I went to SHOT on their FFL a few years back.

Cliff, the owner's son, has done a great job building the business.

Rifle Gear in the Colony would have one most likely. I’ve bought a gas tube and block pin from them before.

Ill second for Bauer Precision. They will have what you need if you're willing to drive to denton.
