AR-15 – How To Check Headspace

Everyone asks where I find AR-15 stuff in stock or where I order from, so here you are:
———————————————————————————–
My buddy Dale from Little Crow Gunworks demonstrates how to properly check headspace on an AR-15 barrel that has been installed. Dale is the inventor or the R.P.P Roll Pin Pusher AR-15 Tool as well as the W.F.T World’s Finest Trimmer. He is extremely knowledgeable and was very nice to have taken the time to demonstrate this! Thanks again, Dale! Check out his website, and tell him I sent ya!

  1. I hope the viewers noticed what I did? You are only one of maybe 2 people I would allow to service/modify my firearms. You have a very gentle and patient disposition while handling and servicing the firearm. A lot of respect to you my good man!

  2. i know a gunsmith that went to colorado school of trades not online school. hes always maintained that you dont need to check the headspace on an ar as long as you arent using crap parts and you properly torque your barrel nut. hes built hundreds of rifles possibly 1000s

  3. Why not use the bolt without the carrier, cutting off most of the neck of a spent round and holding it in the chamber by attaching it to a rod through the barrel. Then trying to insert the bolt and turn it by hand.??of course measuring the spent case dimensions prior to for reference, for acceptability.

  4. What an idiot. He proceeds to tell us how to check whether the headspace is good or not. Then he fails to tell us what to do if the headspace is not good. This is so typical of people who can't think past the obvious, and dig deeper into a concept: such as what to do if the headspace is not good! Didn't you think that you should tell us how to fix a problem headspace? I wouldn't send my firearm to that gunsmith if he offer to do the work for free.
