Hey gang,
I'm wanting to install a single point sling style endplate on a Colt 6920.
I borrowed a nice sturdy AR wrench and a mag block from a friend.
I have completely unstaked all metal from the endplate out of the castle nut. Penetrating oil has been applied and allowed to soak in.
The buffer and spring have been removed.
I don't see anything else holding it up but I can't seem to get the nut backed off. I'm not putting all my strength into it because I'm afraid I might crack/bend the lower reciever. I even gave the end of the wrench a few taps with a hammer but nothing.
Basically I'm being careful and don't want to force anything.
What's next?
More muscle?
Heat?
Thanks guys.
