installing a free float handguard

So is that really all there is to reinstalling taper pins? I thought you had to peen them?

So fuck torquing the barrel nut?????? I found that 40 foot lbs almost always lines up the hole perfectly. And since the torque value is anywhere from 30 to 80 ft lbs it falls right in spec. It's better than just guessing.

Has anyone ever had front sight pins come out that easily?

I have an AGM M4, the hand-guard is the same but smaller. Every time I hold it by the hand-guard, the little circle with the many holes going around it moves by a few degrees. I can't tighten it because if I do, then the top rail becomes not inline with the other top rail on the upper receiver! What do I do, I can't think of anything to do! Please help!

i allready havea free float tube on my gun im going to change it for a free float quad rail do i need to change the barrel nut and remove the gas tube or shoud i be fine

What if my handguard is a certain lenght and the rail i want to put on is longer. What do i do about the gas tube. I know it wont reach and where does my front sight going to sit now?

@dunbar555 So if I put a free floating handguard on my AR but don't want the front sight tower, I can get a low profile gas block?

is there any way of doing this with a permanently attached muzzle break? for those of us who live in a socialist state

great video!just wish it was higher quality resolution!

Does anyone know if the Magpul polymer handguard is free floating? Does it suffer from twist when a vertical grip attachment is on there?

@pontiacmaniac2 contact the manufacturer of the upper and see what they say

cant get my barrel nut off, ive tried everything. Lube, heat, strength, nothing works. This is crazy, a task this simple should not be this hard, i'm sick of trying to work on that darn thing. think i'll just got back to my AK.

i got a question i have a stag 2h upper im looking to get rid of the front post and add a quad rail (not sure what kind yet) for a flip up sight aswell as my eotech 512 my question is how do i tell if the muzzle break is pinned or welded on cause i know you need to remove it before the front sight post can come off anyone able to help me out??

Nicely done sir! This just answered nearly all my questions. Can't wait to make the change to a FF handguard. I hope it is as simple as it looks!

@commentfightsrfunny Thanks man!

Why is it more accurate just because its free floating?

That had to be the easiest FSB taper pin removal in the history of AR's. I needed Thor's hammer to get the ones out of my BCM. However, I'm sure they made minor changes to make this segment go a lot smoother. Though, it would have been interesting to see Jim cursing under his breath and wrestling with the things for 10 minutes.
