I won't call the tool a total POS, but it certainly sucks at removing castle nuts. Let's just say I have a Spikes stock wrench and new castle nut enroute.

Years ago I broke a DPMS tool in half while trying to remove a stubborn barrel nut. Apparently DPMS had a bad batch go out. While waiting for the warranty replacement I picked up an Olympic wrench locally, and I've been using it ever since. Despite their less than stellar reputation the Oly wrench is a damn nice tool that is exceptionally well made  Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

It sucks when you have put everything in without a scratch and trash the castle nut with the DPMS tool. It has been GTG for everything else it is intended for. I ended up buying a RRA stock wrench. It's the only RRA product I own and it is a damn fine one  Works great every time and doesn't trash the nut.
