    I Had to remove the barrel nut on my new to me upper this afternoon. Since I hate to wait for anything, I built myself a high-tech redneck barrel nut wrench....complete with socket attachment for the torque wrench.
    parts included a wrench,large washer,3/4 drive socket,and the shaft of a masonry drill bit.
    I wish it had a couple more pins, but they would have been wicked hard to position exactly.
    It works great, and I got the gun ready for the range....no waiting!...+ good excuse to use my tig welder:flame:

    Thanks!
    FYI PB Blaster and a heat gun do wonders for getting a barrel nut off.
    Hell , PB blaster saved my butt several times this week!
