Colt M5/6940/6940P Barrel Nut Tool (See Description)

[@Mikolt1911]

Can you make a video on why you don’t care for piston ARs???

[@jesscobb2279]

I love my short stroke gas piston AR15. Never have had a problem with it after 15k rounds of various casing types, unlike my straight gas impingement AR'S that can have minor failures from time to time. Thanks for all the product videos. God bless.

[@henryroesemann2235]

Thank you, Chad and Chase. I just pre-ordered one.

[@juanthelawnmowerthief1641]

Is there a video where you discuss why you don’t like gas piston AR’s?

[@MrMagoo321]

I have an aaw barrel nut wrench for an le 6940 it's real tight and has to be tapped on with a plastic mallet to engage. I've never had to use it but it's in my toolbox and I was just test fitting it when I found that out

[@godsdozer]

my old 6940 is one of my favorites.

[@Cz9mmp10]

Thanks for the valuable info. I really want to know why you dont like Gas piston Ar15s

[@CrpMag]

Thank you! I have been unable to find any of the Arrington wrenches since mine walked away.

[@NoBrakes23]

Love seeing more SLS Metal parts/tools getting used in the firearms world.

[@anthonyhablinski9852]

Thanks for the video, could you please tell me what brand of torque wrench you are using, I would appreciate it. Thanks and Merry Christmas.

[@Critical-Defense]

I’m going to pick up my Colt M5 from my FFL after it’s delivered tomorrow 😁 I’ll definitely grab one of these wrenches, I appreciate the tip and the designer/manufacturer, you guys are the real MVPs.. Also have the LE6920-OEM2 coming next week. I’m leaning hard towards one of those overpriced (newly released?) LaRue 14.5” or 12” MLOK rails or the similarly overpriced LaRue 9” quad 1913 pic rails. I’m sick of heavy af rifles that need a 12” pencil barrel to shoot without a bench so weight may make a decision for me..

CHASE AND CHAD FOR THE WIN 🏆 😂 WE ARE THE WINNAS

I have lwrc-di ,didn't know they were bad ,all well👍☕️☕️✌️😂 Keep up the good work, love your content

[@montyreed2541]

They ain't. My M61C is a beast and beloved

[@kenabi]

makes me wonder if some of the sizes of o2 sensor sockets can be modded to suit.

[@justbrian3487]

Ordered one to take a look at this myself

[@Z7d3nR4]

Good innovation.

[@lebensgesetze]

Does the M5 tool also work on the 6940?

[@SchooloftheAmericanRifle]

Yes. It's in the video description.

No way around this if you have that type of receiver.

Have you found any issues with the colt M5?

[@ROBIN_SAGE]

Keep up the great work!

[@lzxray6781]

Why didn't Colt have the same barrel nut?

[@eaglesblades]

Now comsoke needs to make a Colt 6940P piston kit. If mine goes the entire rifle is done.

[@aaronkong8393]

any thoughts on the colt m5? some of these things have been seeing use in ukraine recently and im interested to know how well built they are

[@Joseph_Hamilton]

Does the lwrc tool fit all barrel profiles? Something lwrc did that I hate is make their tool only fit their profile so you basically have to use their barrels.

[@c.w.4804]

I 3D modeled it directly from the factory tool.

[@Joseph_Hamilton]

@ thank you so much for replying! Have you tried it with other barrels? I’m almost positive lwrc has a proprietary profile that the tool only fits. I would love a straight walled model that fits most/all profiles.

[@c.w.4804]

@@Joseph_Hamilton I have only developed this from measuring the factory tool and don't have access to the rest. However, It would be very simple to make the 3D model cylindrical. I figured there was a liability reason that LWRC tapered their tool. I too like to protect myself from liability.

[@Joseph_Hamilton]

@ i would absolutely buy a cylindrical model from you.

[@LyleH-13]

Any idea if it works on the monolithic Colt 901 308 modular rifle?

[@Bane_Diesel]

Do you have the aero precision barrel nut tool for classes?

[@SchooloftheAmericanRifle]

Yes

[@jamesdelong6401]

Nice tool

[@bob_mosavo]

Thanks 👍

does this guy also make a silent capture install tool as well? seeing how important those silent capture buffers are?..j/k.. cheers from Maine! awesome video! lnowledge is best when shared and learned!

[@robertfoote3255]

Sweet! 👍

[@xephael3485]

You can loosen with a digital torque wrench or any torque wrench honestly... It's the same mechanics to see the torque it takes to take something off that it does to tighten it. The big thing is you probably don't want to use it as an actual wrench as its extra wear.

[@SchooloftheAmericanRifle]

I never claimed otherwise. The wrench is labeled for those who will use the wrench in class before instructions are offered. Torque wrenches can get damaged by using them past their rated range in reverse or forward. So, it's safer to offer the warning until I can offer a detailed description. People pickup torque wrenches and try to use them to break loose barrel nuts that are completely locked up. 2 have been broken by students in the last 2 years.

[@xephael3485]

@SchooloftheAmericanRifle ah okay 👍 thanks for explaining. I didn't get why the label was on it.

[@Critical-Defense]

@@SchooloftheAmericanRifle as red sparks filled my shop a few days ago from my Dremel’s grinding wheel I felt judged when I pondered what SOTAR would think of my methods to remove a M&P-15 gas block + taper pin. It took me a week of grinding but, I finally turned that gas block into powder without grinding a hole in the barrel 😂

[@justanotherinternetexpert7743]

"I DONT LIKE GAS PISTON AR15S" Man that statement always annoys me, especially when it comes from people that should know better. Lwrc makes some of the best rifles on the market. And the Gas piston Ar15 has MORE then proved itself. Are some gas piston Ar15 designs better than others, yes of course, but if you stick with proven designs like POF-USA, LWRC, PWS, HK, CARACAL, SIG then the The whole gas piston vs D.I. arguement is just dumb. They both work, they both have their pros and cons. And they both have their place.
