Barrel nut assembly question

[Jäger1]

I grabbed an upper off the EE and it had a DD rail on it. I'd like to remove that and replace it with a different handguard that uses the standard AR barrel nut.

Is the barrel nut assembly that questar offers complete?

I only ask because it's nearly half the price of competing listings...even on Brownell's..

Should work no problems, I think I just got the same one but from Fabsports instead... What kind of rails are they? You may need their special wrench to remove the locking ring thingy...

I have a single point castle nut wrench that seems to fit fine. I'm waiting on a vise block before I can tackle that anyway. If it doesn't work, I noticed wolverine sells the DD tool.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Yeah… my DD rail came with a castle nut wrench as the barrel nut wrench… Should work…
