Helpful Positive Review looks to be a solid unit by mx557, Verified Owner, August 2, 2016
this one was cheaper than most other collars so I took the chance. seems to be of good quality and has the cutout for staking it if you are into that. as long as the specs are right it should work fine.

Helpful Positive Review Castle nut by GoPats, Verified Owner, November 10, 2020
Well, it’s a castle nut, not much can be said other than it works and the fit and finish were good. Lost one somewhere along the way so I just picked the cheapest one available since it can always be returned free freight.

Helpful Positive Review Works for the price by Jeff, Verified Owner, March 25, 2021
For the price of this castle nut it worked fine on my buffer tube with no slop in the threads. Mine did not have staking slots in it and the material was not aluminum but steel. Torked down fine at 30 ft/lbs with no problem or marks from my wrench.

Helpful Negative Review Cannot Be Staked by Philll, Verified Owner, March 14, 2023
The one I received did not have detents on it for staking, despite what the product picture shows. Everything else was fine. The threads mated easily with the buffer tube and it torqued down just like any other castle nut.

Product Info for XTS Castle Nut

The XTS Castle Nut works with the XTS Carbine action and incorporates the Vipper Muzzle Brake. A simple press of the Vipper in combination with the steel Castle Nut forms a fully functional muzzle brake. Vippers have been used in military sniper rifles for decades. The combination of the muzzle brake and a properly fitted castle nut keeps the muzzle brake and barrel in place, making it difficult to remove. XTS machined the castle nut from heat treated steel alloy and it is MIL-STD Manganese Plown. It can be re-installed in seconds using the provided heat wrenches.image
