[QUOTE="DavidWOwens, post: 3038536, member: 24422"] So, Friday night I mount my 300 blk in a vise with the appropriate vise block. Attempt to remove flash hider, and the entire barrel starts rotating. Weird, right? I first thought the indexing pin sheared, barrel only has about 100 rounds through it. Once I get the hand guard and barrel nut off, the indexing pin is fine, however the barrel is unscrewing from the barrel extension. Has anybody else ever experienced this? I took it to a gunsmith and he thinks it just wasn’t torqued correctly and can be saved. Looking into an alternative barrel just in case. Any 8.5” barrel suggestions?
