the reply I got from fulton armory was that they would have "extra" jam nuts the next time they do a run, but they don't know when that is gonna happen. I tried going to a machine shop and they said it would be about $100 to make the jam nut , because of the special threads. They would need for me to take the barrel nut off and give it to them for a couple of weeks. Don't think I'm going to use that option. the JP enterprises solution won't work either. The barrel nut is 2.25 inches and JP enterprises fits 2" not sure if the DPMS handguard would fit either. I know that the threads are different between the different manufactures.

I've tried calling fulton armory twice and have left 2 e-mails for them. [They still haven't replied] When it does come time to remove the barrel nut I'm going to get the ARMSTRONG TOOLS 34-110 WR SPNR FACE 1-3/4 BLK that someone else recommend. I might have to go to a machine shop and have the 2.25" steel ring fabricated. I'm still looking and I'll post what I find as the solution.

Hello, this is my first post and I'm hoping that someone can help me. I put together a AR-10 using a DPMS lower and the Fulton-armory Titan upper. The Free Floating Handguard came from Fulton-armory out of allignment. I decided to losen the hanguard Jam Nut and then straighten the handguard myself. Unfortunately the handguard and jam nut were put on with RED loc tite and in the process I've damaged the jam nut. I thought the YHM-9433 would fit but it's too small [ 2" vs the 2 1/4"]. I tried Brownells and Midway USA and they both said to contact the manufacturer. I tried Fulton armory and they would only sell me the entire handrail package (about $170). The support person said they didn't sell the jam nut seperately and they didn't know who the manufacturer was that made the handguard. I contacted Yankee Hill and this is what I got back. Sir, Thank you for your interest in our product. No, we do not have any jam nuts that will fit any .308. We do from time to time get contracts from both Fulton Armory and Bushmaster to manufacture forearms for .308's for both companies, however we do NOT offer and CANNOT offer any forearms or parts for sale. They are Bushmaster/Fulton Armory exclusives and available only through those companies. Sorry. Anyone got any Ideas on a Jam Nut that will fit on the titan 308 upper? Any help is appreciated. If not then any recommendations on a free floating handguard system that will sell the components seperatly. I can't believe that Fulton armory armorers don't make a mistake and mess up the jam nut from time to time.
