[wolf300H&H]

hey guys quick question, after sighting in my m1a with its 1st scope today,took inside and thoroughly cleaned it, noticed that the muzzle/flash suppressor was a bit rattling.is this normal or do i tighten up that lock/lug thing. thanx for the help on this . its probably the only thing i havent messed with yet and i dont have that special wrench.thanx again.

its ok guys i figured it out, but it looks like i need to get it one tighter to set the lock screw,so im gonna order those special castle nut pliers . is there any other reccomended tools i should get for the m1a ????reccomendations,probably that gas nut tool too hey.thanx.

Yeah, definitely have to get your castle nut tight. If the flash hider is still loose after that, then try peening the top flash hider spline on the barrel...that ought to tighten things up for you.
