AR barrel nut newbie.HELP

[yomomma]

Ok. Installing my barrel.

Did the 30ftlbs a couple times.

Now alignment is off. Took it up to 50ftlbs. See pic.

Hand guard says not to exceed 60lbs

What do i need to do? Shims?

 

[yomomma]

Ar15 shims same as AR10?

 

[yomomma]

Anyone in Hamilton-Niagara want to sell me one?

Nope you need AR10 shims,

The ones from TNA needed fitting but worked for me. The ID was to small to fit over my Criterion barrel, took a round file and worked it until they fit
