that much slop needs to be shimmed, facing your upper might help a little, but what if your barrel nut isn't machined square ? then what did you accomplish ?

Is broken charging handles a symptom of the barrel or headspace not being correct?

How about ceramic paste for assembly?

I don't think this works lol, it's just lube .lol

If you need to bed your AR15 barrel stop using BCA parts.

I'd like to see the range results

This guy's an idiot...you use aeroshell not locktite...who told him to use locktite here?

Made something similar several years ago. I used large snap swivels to attach zingers and other items. I've tried adding tippet spools, but I'm not sure I like the way I've attached them. Other then that mine has worked well. It's great in the kayak too.

What did you use for a tippet holder and do the neck rubber sections stay in place?

EVERY upper should be thermal fit. Period.

Why wouldnt you just get yourself a scrap piece of poloshed granite and some adhesive 800grit sandpaper and rub it in circles untill flat?

I was always told to use ant-seize, on the barrel extension and the threads, which is loctite brand molly paste.

Great info, have you ever removed and barrel that you that bedded with the Loc-tite 620? If so how did you do it?

I take it that making sure the barrel surfaces and barrel nut surface are flat is not as important. Probably because they're steel and likely machined better?

Excellent video. Very educational. Thank you.

OK, that's for assembly. What about dis-assembly? How do you remove the barrel when that is necessary? Cured Loctite 620 retaining compound does not become elastic until 572°F.

No need to bed a barrel.

5:00 Headspacing DOES NOT happen between the outside of the barrel extension and the upper receiver. It DOES happer between the bolt and the barrel extension. I know you are probably thinking in terms of a bolt action but the headspace is set when they install barrel extensions on the barrel. headspace gauges are only needed if you install the barrel extension yourself

I dont get it is it a fashion item, do make matching earrings, what has it got to do with fishing, whats with the beads, you need to explain what use its for?

He lost me with the headspace issue headspace is set by the barrel extension. And where is the anti seize or aero shell grease, he probably just galled the threads on his receiver. If anyone is watching this please continue to look at more content from others between that and common sense you can learn to do things in a way that won’t damage your gear.

Shim stock .001"

Relay, distribution, blocks, fuses, switches? Is there any way for led lights to just go into a small battery

I hate when I look to the web for how to and I get bullshit nitwit with bullshit information stop making videos about guns till you know what you are doing please believe me you don't know what you are doing

How can you make how to videos when you don't know what you are talking about you are a keyboard self-proclaimed know-it-all

I have never seen loctite used on a flat surface. Loctite is used for threading. That was a filler. Loctite stabilizes near vacuum.

Use shim material from any auto parts store like you are supposed. Loc-Tite is bull shit for this, sure it works , but what do do you want that dried goop in their is beyond me. Shim ss comes as this one wrap around the tighten & you got it. Even without anything you'd been fine, that is what the barrel nut is for.

Great vid - built ARs for years and I'm pretty sure I just ran across my first noticeably out-of-true receiver face. Got my lapping tools coming in the mail. Looking forward to better alignment and tighter shot groups!

MOUTH BREATHING MIKE!

Nice! Looks great and like you said, safety! My grand kids are going to love the pontoon boat when they see these light up after sunset next weekend at Anclote Key! Thank you for a great video sir, fish on!

You take material off the face you risk the extension moving to far into the upper (just a few thou) which will cause the feed ramps on the extension to overhang off the ramp cuts (m4 cut) in the upper.

Unbelievable

A little bit of advice and do not listen to this idiot find someone else but actually knows what they're talking about The fact that he thinks you can change headspace of your barrel by lapping your receiver is one of the many things he says that is incorrect and shows his ignorance

That music is abrasive.

FWIW, lapping the front of the receiver is only going to get you part of the way there. That's a really loose fit. You need to add shim stock or get a custom barrel extension from BAT that's oversized the correct amount to fit your upper. You may not expect 1/4 MOA, but if your using a single round sled, an AR is capable of it. If you're ripping rounds out of a loaded mag, 1/2 MOA is pretty good in my book.

Not worth the time

Using a barrel nut probably works wonders

This guy doesn't have a clue

Looks like you followed the same path I did--bought the Wheeler kit and discovered it had an unacceptable amount of runout. Then bought the Pacific Tool lapping rod and used the Wheeler lapping compound with it...

There are two kinds of AR 15 owners. Those who don’t need to lap the receivers, and those who do it anyways.

That's a machined surface lapping it isn't needed. When you lap you mate two surfaces like when valves are lapped into a valve seat. Your only doing one side on a part that's already flat you can't lap a surface flat you need to machine it flat.And stop using lock tight not needed and only creates problems later.

Great video

What happened to tightening the barrel 3 times?

dude. you have no idea what you are doing or talking about

Probably only works for extremely loose fitting parts. I bet there won't be any difference if he tested this gun with or without. He should prove it by testing with aeroshell, nothing, then loctite.

Brownells says bedding is not required. If there’s a lot of slop in the fit. You need a new receiver.

the was a professional open!

headspace is not affected in lapping a reciever.. the barrel has an indexing pin. if you take a little off the reciever that pin still stays in the same place.....

Thanks for showing us, appreciate it

🤦‍♂️... Just get a better upper. BCM for example, you have to torch the upper just to seat it all the way.
