AR Help Near Wenatchee

[jrebel]

Question for those that are in the know......I bought the completed uppers from a company out of Texas.  They have RRA upper receivers, with Yankee Hill free float quad rails.  I notice on mine that the quad rail is loose and wiggles.  It appears to me that the barrel nut is not torqued down.  I don't have any experience with this and have no tools to correct the problem, but it needs to be corrected.  I am assuming my diagnosis is correct, but again not sure.  Anyone near Wenatchee with experience and tools that can lend me a hand???

It's most likely the tension ring that needs to be tightened.  If you have a vice, carefully put the upper in it.  If you don't have an appropriately sized spanner wrench, then place a steel punch in one of the notches and smack the ring tighter (righty tighty  ) using a hammer.  I have had to do it for my YHM FF tube and my brother's PSA built upper with a YHM FF tube.

Be sure those screws in the sides of the quad rail are tight as well.

The gas tube should prevent the barrel nut from actually loosening.

Careful with putting it in the vise.  Make sure it's wrapped up if you don't have an appropriate upper vise clamp.  You can crack the upper if you clamp down too hard or put too much torque.
