The barrel nut is tight. All 5 Allen screws are tight. The rail is intact 3 parts. Top half, bottom half, and a spacer that connects the two and presses against the bottom of the barrel nut.
I am more than willing to buy a barrel nut wrench and I am very mechanically inclined. I have had the rail off several times so far.
At this point it is fixed, but not really. I placed a .0005 brass sheet between the spacer and the bottom of the nut and that tightened everything up. So either the rail is slightly oversized on the engagement teeth or the barrel nut teeth are to small. At this point I'm leaning to the rail, because I heard a rumor that sone of this exact model rail where loose. But I have a barrel nut on order.
Grant- if you think I can send it to colt and have it back in a resonance amount of time I will. You deal more with them in a week than I will in my life. I will trust your opinion. But if that true why did the quote me so long a wait?
Sorry, I come from the world of long range. Forgive my ignorance.
