A system for retaining a cross fire tube in a multi-combustor gas turbine engine is disclosed.

A cross fire tube extends through one or more openings in the flow sleeve and is secured in place by a retention clip. The retention clip includes a plurality of fingers which engage the cross fire tube and a mounting plate engaging the one or more recessed portions of the flow sleeve flange so as to create a clip engagement having a lower profile than prior art configurations.
