M14 Gas System Tool
The United Defense M14 Gas Cylinder Disassembly Tool is a dedicated wrench for taking apart the gas system on an M14-pattern rifle. The gas cylinder sits under the front of the barrel, and getting it off is part of a full strip and clean, since carbon from every shot builds up inside. A purpose-shaped tool grips the parts squarely, so you are not chewing up the finish with pliers or a general-purpose wrench. It belongs on the bench of any M14 owner who does their own maintenance.
Features
- Purpose-Built For The M14 — The tool is made for one job, working on the gas cylinder of an M14-pattern rifle.
- Open Forked Jaw — Two tines leave the end open, so the head slides onto the part from the side.
- Scalloped Jaw Profile — Matching notches cut along the inside of both tines lead into a rounded throat, shaped to seat against the gas system components.
- Flat Metal Head — The head is cut from flat plate with a black finish and squared, clean edges.
- Coated Grip Handle — A glossy black coating covers the handle and gives your hand a smoother, more comfortable hold when turning.
- Hanging Hole — A hole near the end of the handle lets you hang the tool on a pegboard or hook with the rest of your armorer kit.
- Compact Size — It is a short, single-piece hand tool that fits easily in a range bag or cleaning box.
Build And Use
The tool is a single flat blade with the shaped fork at one end and the coated handle at the other, with no moving parts to wear or come loose. Slide the fork onto the part, seat the jaw fully, and turn using the handle for leverage. It is made for M14-pattern rifles and is best kept with your cleaning gear so it is on hand whenever the gas system needs attention.

Works like a dreamUsed this on my M1A to loosen the gas plug and it turned it counter clockwise without any issues. The steel wrench protected the finish really well and made the job quick.
Fits the gas cylinder perfectly protects the rifle finish

skeptic turned beleiver on thisfigured it was junk but it bit right onto the gas cylinder no slipping. does the job.
no slipping
fits right -
My M1A maintenance just got EASYI was honestly skeptical i needed a dedicated wrench for this but after trying to muscle off the gas cylinder plug with improvised tools and nearly scratching everything up i finally bought this and wow what a difference. You just seat the tool on there and turn it counter clockwise and the plug comes right out, no drama no damage. The steel on this thing feels really solid, heavier than i expected which i actually like.
Heavy duty steel feels very durable
Makes gas cylinder removal quick and damage-free -
Proper Tool for the JobIf you own an M1A you really need a dedicated gas cylinder wrench... trust me on this. I was using a padded pair of channel locks for years and finally marred the parkerizing on my gas lock. Lesson learned. This Keep Shooting tool is steel which I actually prefer over the Sadlak aluminum wrench (which is nice too, don't get me wrong). It grips the gas cylinder securely so you can hold it while torquing the gas plug to the proper 15 ft-lbs with a 3/8 box end wrench. No slipping, no scarring the finish. Fits my standard USGI spec gas system perfectly. Build quality is solid, the machining is clean with no rough edges or burrs out of the box. If you're doing any kind of gas system maintenance cleaning the piston, swapping parts, whatever just get the right tool and save yourself the headache.

Fits right, gets the job doneFit my M1A gas cylinder lock perfectly with no wiggle at all. Shipped fast and the rubber handle gives enough grip even when my hands are stiff from driving all week. Got the gas plug off in two minutes flat instead of fighting it the way I used to.
