Right Tool For An Overtorqued Barrel Nut
Written on Mar 01, 2024
Review for
Precision Reflex Barrel Nut Wrench
It was time to change a barrel on one of my service rifles before the shooting season starts. This was the original barrel on this upper, with 3,800 rounds through it. The barrel nut tool I had from another barrel job worked well last time. It’s a half circle shape, with nubs to engage the slots on the barrel nut. But not this time, the nut was torqued well over 70 lbs before it slipped and sheared off 2 of the teeth. Serched the web, found this product. Went to their website like what I saw and purchased it here. I also bought a new barrel nut. The old barrel nut came off with no problem. Torqued the new nut to 45 lbs. the fingers on this tool completely engage the nut 360 degrees. This is only for barrel nuts, no bottle openers, or extra features. A superior tool made in USA.

Best High Power Scope Mount

Review for
GG&G GS-1 FIRE System Optical Mounting Rail
After extensive web research on the best way to mount a scope for NRA competition, this is the best.
Why? You have a maximum amount of adjustment slots, with a set of medium height steel Warn permanent rings, your nose touches the charge handle and your check bone rests on the stock. With a Leupold AR Mod-1 1.0 x 4.5 scope I have proper eye relief without being a contortionist. A one piece mount may look streamline, but you are limited on scope height and eye relief positions. I torqued the rail to 35 pounds, and the rings to 35 pounds. The rail threads are steel inserts, so no freakout in stripping this bad boy.

Game Changer

Review for
XS Sight Systems Dot Tritium Sight
Bought a SP101 for personal defense and camping. Standard sight was marginal and poor in the dark.
Changed it out to this model and it makes a completely different gun. Great shape for daylight and the tritium glows real nice in the dark. A game changer.
