    Default Special Tools needed

    Real quick question and answer session. I've got a lower I picked up with the dual sling attachment ring between the stock and the frame/lower. Was real happy about that till I found it blocks the slidefire stock I'm trying to put on it.

    Is there any common tools or I need an AR tool to loosen the round bit that appears to hold the back toghether. On this one it's all smooth but for one small dot opening. My lwrc on other hand has multiple small rectangle holes/cuts around it. (If I tried adding it to the LWRC.)

    Also do I need to keep something in that like spacer slot? My LWRC has a slender plate in the same place that has no function other than to sit there it appears.

    Hoping I can avoid a gunsmith trip. But if so need to figure sooner than later so I can get it done before a hoped shooting trip this week.

    I believe you are talking about the buffer plate w/ dual QD. Replace it w/ a stock buffer plate! You can loosen the castle nut w/ a tap or better, buy your own AR tool.



    instead of...



    or



    You will need...



    And the ring w/ the 'dot thingy' is the castle nut...





    Sorry if I am off.. It was rather confusing to understand your post at first.

    As usual, I don't know the answer to your question but instead can offer a light-hearted, smart@$$ comment:

    With all the available variations of that "dual sling attachment ring", some pics would be really useful, but frankly - MB888 pretty much explained it...

    He got it covered. Didn't want to call it castle nut to only find out that's something else. Was a quick post from alternative means because I was also in the middle of reformatting and/or being a zombie @ 2am.

    Was the dual sling loop kind. Guess I need a spare normal plate unless I also swap out the one on LWRC. With my luck the LWRC will be loctited on or something so I have to blow torch it almost. Have that problem with the Troy BUIS I was going to take off and sell for a pretty penny and swap out for magpul ones for half the cost.

    Was happy to recover my selector spring retaining pin or whatever, stays in the LWRC pretty tight so I didn't notice it fall out of the dpms. Took me a few minutes wondering why my selector would spin loosely and some compare/contrast to figure out what was missing.
