I have never had so much trouble with such a menial task in my life.
The Thread protector is so Damn tight on my NEW .22 Compact I don't know if it will actually come off without damaging the f**king barrel. C'mon S&W QC you're killing us. "well if tight is good, tighter must be better". cp

No because the barrel nut wrench opened up. So I just ordered a EWK wrench and new barrel nut. Ill wait until it arrived to mess with it anymore.

Someone at S&W is compensating for their manliness of lack of it

A quality tool makes all the difference.
Ordered the EWK wrench and a New Thread protector, and the factory came right off. Well worth the funds. EWK It is also sized to fit over most of the Suppressor adapters on the market. cp |
