How to tighten barrel nut?

 

Thanks

very carefully.................!!!

Don't do it without a vise. You risk boogering it up trying to hold it still and It's going to be such a PITA to get everything lined up and the right torque without a vise and a block.

gotta be a trick question from vlad...lol

 

hold it inbetween your legs reeeeeeeeealllly tight and then tighten....hahaha

No trick question... I'm sure there's a way to do it without a vise... I'm sure I can make something

You could make a stand out of a block of wood and insert it into the magwell

and hold it in the vice..........

He has no vise.

 

Assuming you have a barrel wrench, how about a screw driver through the pivot hole?

Step one - stop

 

Step two - get in car

 

Step three - drive to someone with receiver block

 

Step four. - install barrel

Make a vise and blocks from wood. Sit on it. Wrench away.

 

Or order a block and go to harbor freight and buy a cheap vise

You don't need a big, expensive vice to work on guns.  I have this little clamp-on unit:  http://www.amazon.com/IRWIN-226303-3-Inch-Clamp-on-Vise/dp/B0001LQY44/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1385858490&sr=8-1&keywords=clamp+vise

done.. 

 

old lower (just in case something terrible happened)

reloading bench

multiple ratchet straps...

 

lol

 

it does not take a traditional barrel nut so no way to verify torque.. but its tight.., 

I have no vise.... I have no upper receiver block to hold receiver....

 

How to tighten barrel nut?

If you ever pass by Montclair you are welcome to use my vise and block

Only method known to date w/o proper gear:

 

1- Do 1000 Kegels a day... For 2 weeks.

2- Do 100, 500lb calf raises a day for 2 weeks...

 

Proceed to wrench barrel nut:

 

A- While sitting in a sturdy chair, Place stock on floor between feet and clench feet.

B- Place receiver of weapon between thighs and also clench.

C- Place wrench on nut, (barrel nut ya clown), and proceed to tighten to ~32-35 fps... You'll know you are torqued enough when your nut starts to pinch. (Your nut, not the barrel nut ya clown!)

D- Unclench all body parts and check for proper alignment. (The gas tube, not your nut!)

E- If everything feels and looks right, you are both good to go... (Feels right is not referring to weapon ya banana)...,

 

Done deal! Works well, but if you are out of shape, you have to wait to weeks to develop. Hope this helps!
