[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Free Float Barrel Nut

Posted: 3/27/2008 5:04:52 PM EDT

I'm going to be ordering one of these to replace a regular handguard with a regular delta ring. Do I need a special free float barrel nut?

You need one but I cant tell if they include one. Call them and make sure.

I've installed a DPMS free float tube... The nut is included. Very easy install, but you will need an AR wrench with the pins on it for free float nuts.

The DPMS wrench has them. That's what I use.

It's two piece FF tube.

Once piece is the barrel nut, and the second is the tube which screws onto the barrel nut.

Every handguard on the market uses either the normal barrel nut or a properietery barrel nut that is included with the handguards. You shouldn't ever have to buy a seperate barrel nut.
