Free Lunch for the turn of a wrench

[jedinerd]

So, I had a gunsmith assemble my AR-15 for me and the first time i took it to the range it rattled it self apart, and my YHM free float forearm came loose. I don't have a forearm wrench , nor am i all that mechanically inclined to begin with ( hence why i didn't try and do it myself ). Not only that my BUIS and rails came loose as well. I have the tube of blue loctite thats needed to get the job done. I live in Simi Valley, but anywhere thats not to far would be fine. For anyone thats willing to align and tighten my forearm, secure the rails and BUIS there is lunch on me, or some other type of equitable arrangement. If you could bore sight it too that would be a big bonus! Hit me up if this sparks anyone's interest.

What exactly needs to be done? I am not sure I am set up for YHM tubes, but I can do anything else. I got loctite, bench vise, upper receiver block, and AR15 gunsmith wrench. I am in T.O. I know for a fact Addax Tactical in SFV would do it for a very reasonable price.

I hadn't thought about Addax. Are they open on weekends? My work schedule prevents me from making it out during any reasonable time during the week. Right now the main issue is that i can turn my free float forearm with my bare hands. The rest is just a matter of tightening and loctitiing the rails and BUIS, but the YHM free float forearm is my primary concern. I have the customizable Free Float AR-15 Forearm System specter length.

Fort Courage Armory guys are nice too, worth ringing them up and seeing what they think.

If the YHM rail isn't installed properly with the anti-rotation screws. We can do for you want to stop by!

San Diego is a little far... Also i don't think it came with anti rotational screws? On the YHM forearm page its the only one that doesn't mention anti rotational screws.

Was mine missing parts?

If it's one of the older ones, then it won't come with those screws. There is a special YHM wrench to get the collars tight.

I'm in Burbank, and can't really help, but always down to talk guns and eat lunch!

Out of curiosity, who did the work originally? Have you contacted him to see if he is willing to stand behind his work? BTW, I recommend that you let Josh have a crack at it. He came to my old house in TO and loaned me his wrench when I rebuilt one of my uppers. He may not be an old fart with 50 years of experience but, he knows what he's doing.

I PM'd you the name. He did say he would stand behind it 100%, but he is out of town for a while, and I was hoping to go shooting again before then

Chris at Addax would definitely hook it up. But he just had twins and will only be coming in to finish existing orders at the moment. I spoke to his sister yesterday. He should be back in full swing shortly but probably not soon enough for the work u want done.
