I've got a couple of pre-ban threaded barrels.I can run the flashhider all the way down with hand pressure only...I never have to put a wrench on it until I want to torque it.I thought it was supposed to "get snug"at about 3/4 of the way onto the muzzle. Question: Is this acceptible? Is your rifle the same way? |
Are you using a crush washer? Are you using a NEW crush washer? You need a new one to get the best alignment. Doesn't sound like you are using one at all, you should get one. |
| You could probably get a cheap crush washer on the Equipment Exchange |

I should have clarified. I am using a new crush washer. I just meant that I can screw the fh onto the barrel with no crush washer(as a trial fit),and it goes all the way on with just the hand pressure. Just seemed too loose!!! Like I stated before,I thought it should begin to get snug at about 3/4 of the way on. Ones a BM and ones a Colt. |
