I see your confusion and grant you a conditional opportunity to pass go anyway, to reach Christian vs jihadi extremist. Unfortunately, like most ME countries, there is a lot of overlap, swirling and nebulous connections of political grift, Corporate theft and Hezbollah/Hamas infiltration in'shallah that makes confusion the rule, rather than the exception. I'm ever hopeful though. |

Some crush washers are harder than others. My goto crush washers are Yankee Hill. They seem softer and make it easier to time the FH. If you are in doubt use a torque wrench and set it to 30 Ft/Lbs. If the FH is not in time not exceeding 30 Ft/Lbs try a different washer. JM2C Edit: I've also said screw it and just wrenched it in time. Edit: Could be the barrel threads and shoulder verses FH thread depth also. I ran into that on a FN barrel. The shoulder was slightly farther back than standard. |

I've seen that done. I've noticed once the washer starts to crush it becomes slightly easier. Like it gives. I've also sanded one down to make it thinner. It's always something. I think I've only had 1 perfect build.

The shoulder was slightly farther back than standard. Wrenching it on isn't going to hurt anything if you have the barrel clamped well and still have depth to the crush washer. Recommended torque for a grade 2 5/8 coarse threaded bolt is 73 ft-lbs, and it only goes up from there. Barrels are fine threaded and much better than grade 2 steel. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By tnriverluver: My retired sister spends every day transporting dogs now and my wife gives about $10k a year to a local rescue group. Unreal how many homeless/lost dogs there are in our area. Good for them. I've returned a few lost dogs over the years where I just happened upon them while driving, but I bet if I went out looking for them there would be plenty more. It's tricky where I live now, though, since there are a lot of people who let their dogs roam the streets. These dogs are not lost; they're just hanging out in the road like Antifa. ETA: You see how I brought it back to rioters at the end? That makes this entire discussion about dogs officially on-topic for the thread.

Okay, I just snapped a quick pic of it. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/175509/IMG_1993-1539111.jpg The crush washer is in place, without any shims, and it is cranked down. I'll get it loosened up , and send you an IM when I start back into working on it later this afternoon. How far off timing is that shot? I'd say about 120* ETA: In about an hour or two, I'm going to put it on the reaction rod and do the tighten it down, back it off, tighten, loosen it, ad naseum thing that I was reading about. |
