I'm building 2 different heavy barreled rigs with components from different companies. I'm having an issue with the inner diameter of the barrel nuts fitting over the barrel. The first build is a 24in DPMS .204 Ruger bull barrel with a Seekins MCSR 15in rail. The next one is a 20in Wilson .223 Wylde bull barrel with a Samson 13.5in rail. Both barrel nut will not get past the gas block area.
I already Dremeled the Seekins nut to fit the DPMS barrel, thinking the barrel was more to blame than a Seekins product. Now I received the next heavy barrel with a different rail and having the same issue.
Is this par for the course with the big AR barrels?
