I just recently purchased a Doublestar STAR 15 M4, and of course it has the standard a2 birdcage FS on it. I have a YHM Phantom 5c2 on its way in the mail now,
   Now I'm sure this has been asked many a times on this forum site and I apologize, but here goes anyway. What is the best tool and method for which to remove the birdecage and install the Phantom 5c2 without doing any damage. Also, how tight should I crank down the new one? Or, should I take it to a professional?
Much thanks in advance for any advice.                                                                             Masterblaster556 = Kevin

Any AR wrench should have the ability to do it right.   I made a video below showing it step by step that should help you out.

There are detailed instructions on the YHM website.
It should also come with printed instructions.
