Im throwing around some ideas to build a precision varmint upper with a bull barrel in .223/5.56. Id like to put a free float handguard on my build.
On standard M4 Profiles with traditional handguards- the uppers use a delta ring, weld spring and snap ring and slotted barrel nut.
Does a free float handguard require a different specialized barrel nut to torque it to the reciever? Do these typically come with a handguard set, or are most of those barrel nuts alike?
Will a Milspec upper reciever work fine for a varmint type upper? I will scope this upper.
As of now Im just gathering info on parts, and see what is needed before I start to compile parts.
