I'm sure that wrench is as solid as a brick shit house, but $80 is high for a wrench with that few features.
I guess if you don't own a hammerhead and you're doing a lot of USGI barrel nuts though.... it might work for you.

Their wrench has the torque specs listed on it.
It appears that 3 Ft/Lbs is listed for the castle nut.

Stock looks incredibly similar to the new HKMR556 A5 stock, which I love.

I like it. I will be buying the new hand guard for sure to put on my 6920 MPB. The MOE carbine hand guard just doesn't give enough room. This new offering addresses that nicely.

Just about to say the same thing.. good catch.Originally Posted by 556Cliff
“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." - John Dean "Jeff" Cooper, The Art of the Rifle

I like the cut out on the handguards but they look larger than the MOE.

This new SL handguard wraps around the front site post and provides much better forward hand access. I like my vertical grip 3x slots forward, and the standard carbine length is very crowded at the front. This fixes that issue nicely. I give my 2 thumbs up. Can't wait to buy and try.
"We must surrender our attachments to government in every aspect of life. This goes for the right and the left. We need to give up our dependencies on the state, materially and spiritually. We should not look to the state to provide for us financially or psychologically....

Maybe they mean the width, but I agree it doesn't look slimline at all.
I wish they added M-Lok slots on the gas block shield so I can put a light out further.

This is exactly what I have been waiting for them to do. It gives you an extra couple of inches on carbine length guns with fixed front sights.
I will be replacing the standard MOE hand guards on my spare carbines with this when it comes out.
