yeah, its' brand new. i think it was near the barrel nut.I'll assemble it to see what happens.
For the new guys who want to remove the inner barrel.
INNER BARREL REMOVAL
The inner barrel consists of 3 parts. An inner barrel (250 mm), a inner barrel connector, an inner barrel sleeve (105mm). You need to remove these 3 things to install a new inner barrel exceeding 250 mm.
1-remove the top rail on the outer barrel. The screws that hold the rail down go through into the outer barrel. This screw over hang will prevent the inner barrel connector from moving.
2- take the old inner barrel, put it in the muzzle end and make sure the old inner barrel is making contact with the inner barrel sleeve.
3. Take a piece of wood and place in on the inner barrel as this is the point where you are going to make contact with the hammer.
4. Gently tap the wood so the inner barrel pushes the sleeve down which pushes the inner barrel connector down.
5- Once the inner barrel moves the sleeve loose enough, take a real cleaning rod or something similar. It will be able to fit now in between the inner barrel sleeve and outer barrel.
6-the cleaning rod should now be in contact only with the inner barrel connector. Gently tap the cleaning rod with the hammer until it is finished.
I have attached a picture to show the new guys what it looks like when removed to get an idea of what to expect.
Thanks for all the PM advice. The picture is off the inner barrel, connector and sleeve along side the outer and new barrel. Thanks
