I just got a Daniel Defense M4 quad rail (I know it's old, so am I, get over it). For some reason I've been wanting to built an upper with a 14.5" barrel, FSP, and quad rail.
Hoping that someone has the wrench it takes to put it on. The rail and the wrench have been discontinued for a while.
The instructions say I can use a strap wrench so I might have to resort to that.

might want to post a picture of what you want as that is what DD says to use for their M4 Rails https://danieldefense.com/rail-systems/ ... rench.html

I'm not sure why they say it fits the DDM4. I know that wrench does NOT fit what I have. Here is the wrench I need: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/719044/daniel-defense-m4-rail-threaded-ring-spanner-wrench-ar-15Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can almost promise you a strap wrench is not going to be strong enough break a barrel but loose. If you can get me some dimensions I can cut you one out on a water jet.

In that case it may just work. My offer still stands however. I would need a blueprint of sorts.

Absolutely. I could make a few. Just pay for shipping and be patient.

That would be sweet.
Not sure if there's a market for them since the rail and wrench are both discontinued.
