[QUOTE="TargetShooter2, post: 3017869, member: 13890"] Hello, the reason to remove the gas block and tube is to make sure you don't damage it , or twist it in half . by not knowing just how the handguard comes off . since most barrel nuts are in 35 to 60 foot pound range if you take out any set screws and if you apply heat and twist in some cases, you can unscrew the whole unit tube and barrel nut , and if it does then you may twist the tube or break it in half as the tube goes through the upper almost 1.5 to 2 inches . and if it does come loose as 1 unit the tube will keep it from coming loose so, remove it if you are not sure how things comes a part. it only take a few minutes to remove two gas tube screws and remove the block /tube , or push a 1/8 pen out .
