...have you removed the barrel from the receiver already?
And the front sight? And the flash hider? Gas tube? The delta ring is disassembled with a simple set of snap ring pliers.... as long as you've taken the above steps already. |

Did you remove the gas tube?
Are you removing just the delta ring or trying to remove the barrel nut? If you are just trying to remove the barrel nut, then dont even mess with the delta ring, you can unscrew the barrel nut with it in place. |

I have removed the old gas block, tube,flash hider, the ring on the flash hider. I mounted a vise to my desk (i live in an apartment) and as I tried to get the barrel nut off using the special wrench. I broke the desk trying to turn the barrel nut.

Are you trying to remove the barrel nut, or the delta ring? The barrel nut needs to come off first(The delta ring is attached to the barrel nut via a snap ring).

You don't need to remove the flash hider or front sight to remove the delta ring. it slides off the REAR of the barrel nut. Just remove the barrel - use needle nose pliers to open the retaining ring a bit, then slide it off the rear of the barrel nut and over the chamber. You guys NEED to get a copy of the -23&P and READ IT before you screw up your rifles: http://www.ar15.com/content/manuals/TM9-1005-319-23.pdf |

If it was installed w/o the appropriate lube you can have galling and it will be darn near impossible to remove the barrel nut. Use some Kroil (a penetrating oil) to help, and if you can put the upper in a freezer overnight. |
