I think you were trying to embed this?
OP, no tool needed, just pull the delta ring back, pull each half out. One half at a time, pull the Delta ring side out first, then the front.(while holding back the Delta ring- you shouldn't be turning anything)



After watching plouf's review of these, you probably don't have a swivel under these specific handguards-, looks like it needs to be removed. So either get a set of the normal old Moe's and get a new front sight post swivel, or the easier method just get a magpul sling attachment for that rail.

This.

Mine was so tight it took two of us to get it apart the first time. Got it off and then lubed the delta ring with a few drops of oil. Worked it for a few minutes to get it to loosen up and after that I never had an issue. It's still tight but I don't need a tool or a neighbor to get it to move now.

I didn't have an issue with my sling swivel. It hung down properly and without interfering with the handguard. Were you able to get the D ring to move? Once the the handguard is off if the swivel is stuck under it somehow it should come loose.
