You can also use a file if you don't have belt sander. Only takeoff the bare minimum, for me that was just filing off the finish

How many lbs have you guys been tightening your Gen III handguards.

Previously it was more like 60, this time I had to go above 80. One of those cheap wheeler vices with the gas tube fittment key is getting tempting. Another thing I considered, I wish the PRI wrench had a "spy" hole for a drill bit or key, so you could apply pressure and push. That way when the key was perfectly aligned it would slide in and you could stop torquing. Thanks. I'll try going up to 60 first. This is for the barrel nut? (Never installed a PRI tube but I've installed a shit ton of barrel nuts) 2 Barrel nut installs ago I went to 95 ft lbs and still didn't get it lined up. I was pissed. 
Ended up cutting that nut off with a dremel, then installed new barrel nut (made by the same company) and got it aligned at 47 ft lbs. Moral of the story, it will vary from person to person/part to part. Ugh. I took it to 100 lbs, and they still don't line up.
That sucks bro. I wouldn't go any higher as you aren't supposed to exceed 80 ft lbs anyways with most barrel nuts. But you have 2 good options, either face the end of the receiver, (only removing the finish, nothing more, and evenly) or ask PRI for a new barrel nut (which is basically the route I went minus PRI part) |

I have one from brownells and while not every upper has needed it, they all get it. Yeah i know some guys shit an e-chicken over aluminum vs. steel barrel nuts and the wear it causes.

Dude....I don't get it.
You have well over 1/8" of space you need to move. How do you think shaving off a few thousandths off the receiver threads is going to give you 1/8"+ of space? |

Idk how his gap is that fat with the nut torqued to 100+ ft lbs. Hoping he didn't cross-thread the nut or someshit. It could definitely be an out of spec barrel nut or receiver though. |

You guys are going to make fun of me. But PRI did just email me the visual instructions on installing the Gen III handguard with the PEQ sleeve.
The top rail on the handguards moves. You just unscrew the screws on top and slide it til it fits perfectly with your PEQ sleeve.  So it's fixed guys. Thanks for the help though. |

So fellers, barrel should be here today I think. Gas block should be inbound from cornholio soon. And all my other shit is gonna be here monday. Next up I needs a got damn KAC rear, and a Harris/mount. Speaking of, which model of Harris 6-9 do I want for my mod 1? Barrel may be tomorrow, sorry. I think KOBKs upper today, your barrel tomorrow. As to slings, I really want to rig an M60/Alice pack strap hybrid 2 point, which is where the Vtac and Vickers came from. I think Augee rigged one up, it kinda fits with the early SPR too as far as time period goes. Shit. I got mixed up.
As for the Alice strap sling, do it. DO it. Everyone knows there's only one sling that keeps you safe.

Yeah lance hooked me up with a WOA for basically free. I am going to need another barrel for it. But who knows when MILSPEC will actually have money to buy it.
Up to you my friend, keep it, hold onto it. Tis' up to you. |

As in clone correct. Other bests that aren't in use would be WOA, Ballistic Advantage, Kreiger etc. I think there's a popular alternative section in the OP, posted by Utah but written by Lance. |
