DPMS Armorer's Wrench - 12/12/14 12:20 AM

Product number 308TL01 fits DPMS LR-308 models.Sold out of back ordered everywhere. Need to install SASS Free Float Handguard on to a R-25.

Any help?

Even local gunsmiths don't have them

Isn't that just a tool for a barrel nut? Is the LR308 a different pattern nut?

The DPMS LR line has a different pattern barrel nut. I used a Tacpo wrench to remove the factory barrel nut but it only engaged two of the three points, the third hit the treads. I couldn't install the SASS handguard barrel nut without this specific wrench

I dry fit the hand guard and can get it fairly tight with the Tapco wrench but as much as you spend on the guards I don't want to damage anything trying to get extra torque, so I would really rather have the right tool when making the final fit
