That's the one that comes with the newer rail. DD said it will not work with the old style barrel nut.

Sorry just realized the two tab issue. Which handguard do you have?

Well shoot, thanks for posting that! I was planning on swapping rails on my DD w/modular float rail shortly and I was not aware that the barrel nut was a two pronger.

That gun always seems to give me a challenge when I work on it. I swapped the mag release button awhile back and the boys at DD seem to love red loctite in a really unnatural way. Like how a boy in Kentucky loves his cousin. Holy hell they used a lot of it.

Would a grinder take care of that pesky third tab?

It would I think. But the new nut is a 3 tab and that would be counter productive. Think I will just use a pipe wrench and vise.

Seems to me it's pending for a bending.

If you have an armorers wrench you could use that. The castle nut portion. That's what I did. I need to get the torque spec checked though.
