Has anyone used crows foot from harbor freight to remove/torque a muzzle device? I’m wondering if they will fit properly or will I need a specific 3/4 tool for a AR?

They are too thick for the flats on many MDs. Many end up grinding them down to a thinner profile to make them fit. |

I have a 3/4” crows foot and agree with what others have said. It fits fine on some muzzle devices but I ended up grinding it down to work with a few flash hiders recently.

The FCD wrench is my go-to. It's awesome. Real Avid recently came out with a line of wrenches for barrel nuts and muzzle devices. I haven't used them yet, but they look good. Several years back I tried to go with standard crow's feet, and I think all of them were so thick that they were useless. I now have a handful of crow's feet that I'll likely never use sitting in my toolbox as a result.

I have the previous design before it was beefed up and have had no issues. The newer version is supposed to be stronger/ less prone to bending. |
