    THE TM MWS thread

    I know from experience that this effective at removing the Mk18 barrel nut. https://www.brownells.co.uk/MP-15-22-BARREL-NUT-WRENCH-TACTICOOL22-100015709. Just need to give it a few taps with a hammer to get it seated, but I've removed 2 Mk18 rails with it (with a generous amount of heat).

    THE TM MWS thread

    My TM M45A1 mags gave a pretty deep scratch near my trigger guard when slung it to my side. They have metal bumpers on the bottom, unlike the TM MEU mags which have plastic bumpers. Put some black paint in the scratch to kinda blend it back in. My old WE M4 and WE M14EBR are beat and scratched...

    THE TM MWS thread

    Was finally able to get my Mk18 rail off with the Tacticool22 M&P 15-22 Barrel Nut Wrench. Was way easier than using the G&P URX tool since I was able to get way more torque on it. Now to get a second SixG nub, since my original one went to my Block II upper...

    Yes, that's the one. Fills my gun in like 3 or 4 cranks real quick

    THE TM MWS thread

    Got to run my Mk18 stock on .30s today and it was operating flawlessly. Was outranging a lot of my friend's AEGs and since I zeroed my optic, it was pretty much point and click. Now just gotta stick the SixG nub and Tan Modify bucking in my second upper to see how well it goes in comparison.  ...

    I was quick and able to snag a second upper receiver before they ran out, since i'm having so much trouble taking off the Mk18 rails. Gonna keep the Mk18 upper stock for CQB and make the second upper for longer range. Already got my SixG nub and modify tan bucking ready from before I even bought...

    I actually ordered one of the MWS v2 adaptors from you back in late November/early December. Finally got to test it out last month. Worked perfectly with the real Odin once I increased the tension a bit. Loaded my mags all day with no issues. Will get another chance to test it hopefully next weekend

    THE TM MWS thread

    @Reap That's really weird, because my gas block came off just fine after I removed the grub screws. As for the heatgun discoloring the barrel/rail, I had no issues with that. Had the heatgun on the barrel nut for almost 3 minutes and I damaged the clamp holding the gun down more than the gun...

    THE TM MWS thread

    Does anyone have a picture of the barrel nut keeping the Mk18 Mod 1 GBBR rail locked in once it's been removed? I finally got around to getting a clamp, heatgun, and tool to try to remove it. I ended up shearing off one of the anti-rotation tabs on the rail, but the nut seems glued directly to...

    I had bought a G&P URX tool with 4 teeth and had to grind down the teeth a bit until they fit the barrel nut. It probably would have been cheaper to make it, but I don't have the tools or knowhow to do it myself.

    THE TM MWS thread

    Same here, I had bought the SixG nub months in advance of buying an MWS after extensive research. Bought the MK.18 so I would have the option of using the Mk18, or swapping to my Block II rail, then the barrel nut stopped me. I have a proper tool, a heatgun, and an AR clamp, but I'm nervous how...

    So the nut is also threadlocked? Per Arassuil, the NGRS wasn't, but for the gbbr that seems to be different. Might need to borrow one of my friend's heatguns once I get a tool for this job. Thanks for the help, gents!

    THE TM MWS thread

    Yes, I've removed the side screws and the rear screws on the mk18 rail. Normally it would just be able to slide off on my old Madbull 12.5 RIS II, but for the TM there's a barrel nut inside the rail, so my normal castle nut wrench can't fit in

    THE TM MWS thread

    Hi, I finally took the dive and upgraded myself from a WE M4 gbbr to the TM Mk18 Mod 1. I was trying to access the hop up, but I can't get the outer barrel or rails off. Is there a specific tool I need for this or are there any guides for the mk18 yet?
