308reloaded Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I deal with both of McMaster Carr and MSC. get so much email from MSC it not funny, but don't want to cancel .bad news is wrench wont go on barrel nut (yet) I knew better than to weld without barrel nut as guide. will repair or redo tomorrow. a challenge that I am up to. I deserve this as I was rushing things along instead of taking my time. photo is as it sits right now, 3/8 sq. hole not in yet and I will need to remove 2 pins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

survivalshop Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 I made a very crude FF hand guard socket ,when they first came out & when I get time I will take a photo of it. No strap wrenches for me , this worked on a great number of rifles back twenty five years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
