Ok I'm not worrying about removing it. But what do you mean by an "Armorer" install? I have built my own uppers and installed and un-installed barrels and I have the tools, is there something special about the install? Thanks!! |

No, nothing special. If you built you own uppers you should have no problem installing it. I put "armorer" in quotes, because it not that difficult and really just takes some special AR tools. |

might need a strap wrench added to your tools to tighten the locking ring

Thanks guys for the help..
Would a YHM free float tube wrench work on the barrel nut? I ask this because I cannot find any info on a wrench for the DD rails.. Strap wrench I have, I bought one for the YHM tube I installed on my SPRish rifle.. |

The YHM would not work on the DD lock nut. The YHM wrench is a spanner type made specifically for their lock nut. Your strap wrench should work well on the DD lock nut. I don't think the YHM wrench would work on the DD barrel nut either . . . I would suggest a standard barrel wrench for that. (USGI or aftermarket) |

it might,
the yhm barrel wrench part is just three pegs, which i have used for std bbl. nuts and the larue bbl. nut without any problems. since you already have it then it wouldnt hurt to try it. |
