You know that vice block is supposed to be 2 pieces. One piece goes into the upper and that vice block bolts to the piece into upper.
😂 Great video on “How to NOT install a barrel “……. Just as educational as a “ how to” though. 👍🏻
How much is that vice and what brand ?
LOL, some people using anti-seize while some other using loctite to lock it in place.
Its not a notch, it is a pin.
The pin fits into the notch.
Do you have to time the barrel nut to let the gas tube pass? Also do people bed and lap their barrel for these types of builds? I haven’t seen anyone do it on the enhanced M5 upper.
Technically you over torqued it. 65 foot pounds is measured at the head of the torque wrench. There's another 1-2 inches added to the length of the wrench. Torque multiplication means it's going to be more then 65 foot pounds. Will it matter, no absolutely not. Just sayin. You can find conversation formulas on line if you want to know what you torqued it to.
Out of curiosity, what is the reasoning behind torquing then backing the nut out until final torque? I get sneaking up on the final number, as is done a lot with working on cars, but never have backed something out to just torque it higher again.
Good deal on shootingsurplus for the vise block.
