Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Trying to loosen &^^$##@#@#$%5@$$ castle nut!!!
Posted: 2/26/2006 9:37:27 AM EDT
Hi All,

I am attempting to remove the buffer tube from my stock Bushie lower to install a mil-spec tube.  Whoever put this on must have loctited it or some such thing as I have literally BROKEN THE TEETH OFF OF AN RRA WRENCH trying to loosen it.  In all honesty, I am at the verge of destroying my lower in pure frustration!!!! I have read through all the tutorials to try and get this done...no staking is visible..I've heated the nut to no avail. HELP!!!

Heat and a hammer and punch. Probably need to hold the tube or lower in a vice while doing this.
