I have a handguard/barrel nut issue and need the wisdom of the OB.

I have a Larue Tactical handguard and a Wheeler armorers wrench. The studs on the armorers wrench are not long enough to reach past the ring that holds the handguard on. Anyone ever deal with this problem? Any suggestions on how to tighten the barrel nut? If not, what is the going rate for a gunsmith to install the barrel nut and torque for me?

TIA


Seems to be a fairly common problem, you just have to get a wrench that has longer studs like this one

PSA for those in line waiting for suppressors... I called my guy today and he said I should get mine next week... he's receiving late June orders now and expects early July next week or two.

I know there were a bunch of us that ordered in July before 41F was in action so we should all be getting our toys shortly.
