Got this CMT handguard with a barrel, cannot find a barrel nut wrench for it. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts?

Have you tried a castle nut wrench?

I've tried my BCM castle nut wrench, it's too small of a diameter.

The barrel nut diameter is 1.520". Maybe one of the single tooth castle nut wrenches would work in a pinch, but I guess I was hoping for better than "in a pinch."

Damn...it looked like that might work. I wonder if something like the Geissele barrel nut tool would work? It'd let you attach it to a torque wrench at least.

Email CMT. Bet they'd send you what you need.

It is not a wrench. In the box there is a flat tool that slides over the nut and you use a torque wrench to tighten it up. If you contact customer service they will probably send/sell you another one.

It looks like the one in the link below. It's easy to throw away in the box if you are not looking for it.

Used handguard, I didn't have a typical box, lol, but I'll send them a message and see if they can do anything for me!
