Hopefully my Lothar barrel will come in soon - I'm ready to install and test this baby out!

Final spec are, LRB lower (soon to be swapped with a Spikes), YHM A3 upper, 8" Lothar stainles barrel. YHM lightweight carbin HG, Noveske KX3 Flaming pig.

Haven't get decided on optics/sight. Will be looking for a lower end micro red dot.

My question though is this - I've never installed the YHM upper. Does it use a normal AR  barrel wrench or is it a specialized piece? I don't have much experience installing AR barrels - I plan on using some anti seize and wonder how lbs i should torque it?

Edit to add - come to figure I need a specilaized YHM tool...bummer...

DO NOT use anti-sieze. It contains grahite.

I had no idea? Do you use anything on the threads then - just a little grease?
