    As for getting the black ones, I'm just trying to get it all in one place to save shipping.



    Btw where are people getting wrenches from? I dont really want to spend that much for a snap on version. Seems like the amazon ones are to thick.
    I did a google search and it appears that a lot of people on TOS are just using regular crescent wrenches and winging it on torque.

    I got some foliage green ones and dyed them with rit dye, you could never tell. As far as the wrench goes

    Someone on here said that one works and i have it bookmarked for when i install my rail. I haven't gotten it or used it yet so, can't give you much more info than that.

    I hear ya on the shipping but it seems like way more work just to save a few bucks. Noveske has black in stock. Grab a shirt too and your gtg lol

    You can find them on Ebay on the cheap every now and then..

    Or take a grinder to the junk ones to thin em up a bit.

    just send it back when your done with it.

    Thanks

    It is only a minor annoyance to grind down a cheap crowfoot from Amazon. Took me about 10 minutes. I would have gone with the Noveske version but they weren't available back then. Since, I have heard some expressions of disappointment with the Noveske crowfoot.

    This. I used a bridgeport but a dremel would have gotten the job done. I know someone who actually bent one of the noveske wrenches -- he's a good guy and not prone to doing stupid things (at least not often) which leads me to believe that the wrench is a POS.

    Torque wrench at 30 ft-lb, torque nut, make note of distance to go, swap ends, torque nut, if less to go use this side otherwise swap around. switch to 1-1/16 combination and torque to center. no bent crowfoot, no?

    So light...so handy. I love the NSR. I have 2 14.5"s. one a chrome lined with a T1 and the second: an afghan with 1x4.

    I got them both right before John passed. The NSR Afgan to me is about the pinnacle of the AR at the time of him passing. (At te time pretty much the first and only keymod rail) So well balanced with that sick barrel and the Gen 2 lower is probably my favorite lower ever.

    Tipping a beer Right now. Pics tomorrow when not on the iPhone!
