How does it remove the D-ring without removing the barrel nut?

If the d-ring is the part that holds the guards on, it's spring loaded and this tool allows you to push it down to remove the hand guards and install the correct style of rails. The barrel nut isn't touched. I hope this helps. Worked great for my mp 223

The description of the Delta Ring Wrench Removal Tool is misleading. It does nothing to remove the Delta Ring. The wrench's sole purpose is to provide leverage to more easily compress a strong Delta Ring spring to make removal of the weapon's forearm easier. The product is used by placing the wrench's "arms" on either side of the D Ring with the wrench's hook under the lip of the magazine well. Once in place, pressure is exerted on the wrench's arms pushing the D Ring towards the upper receiver allowing the two piece forearm or quadrail, etc. to be removed easier. That's all it does.

The D-Ring Moves back and forth. You use this tool to gain leverage and pull the D ring back towards the receiver. This allows you to remove the hand guards. See this video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLjYzb7spJM

It doesn't actually remove the d-ring. The name is a bit misleading. It moves the d-ring back allowing removal of the hand guard.

Press the gear down, it moves just enough to get the c ring off. You can use a couple of small standard screw drivers to remove if you do not have the right tool ( i used screw driver method, but watch your fingers)

It takes just a bit of elbow grease, that's all. I used two sets of pliers; one to hold the bolt and the other to hold the nut as I turned. Once you get past that white seal, it works fine.

No. This tool will only compress the delta ring to remove the hand guards. If you are not familiar with the gun, tools and process, then it would be be best to just pay some one. It is a small job for some one with the proper tools and knowledge, but a mess for those without. Good luck whichever route you go.

John: I have three Maillard clusters, all of them are Helicomatic, for which the wheel has a solid non-rotational hub protruding from the spoke flange. Partially protruding from the small gear end of the cluster is the lock ring, which has splines similar to those of an old style beer bottle cap on the circumference. The tool which removes this ring is small, flat, 2 or 3 mm thick, with notches for spoke adjustment, a splined circular hole for the lock ring, and an actual bottle cap remover. Very little torque is necessary to remove or install this ring as it is not load bearing. Once the ring is removed, the helicomatic cluster will slide easily from the hub. This tool of question is the workhorse. One must first chain whip two outside cogs from the cluster. The splines of this unit will then be inserted and mate with splines inside a bearing cap. Be careful to align the tool squarely. Reverse threading and high torque exist here. Once free, the cap lifts away showing spacers and a layer of 36 loose ball bearings, then pawls and another layer of bearings. The fun begins with keeping the parts in order. Cogs, bearings, or pawls are easily replaceable if you're organized. Feel free to contact me again if I can help.

Back off the flat cap and continue to unscrew the retaining ring until it's completely removed just keep the flat cap for the future if needed. You don't have to cut anything.

The star nut does have to be removed...I just used a broomstick to knock mine down through the tube

Take the loose nut all the way off. Then try. I believe it has backwards threads.

Remove the 3/4 inch diameter chuck holder from the tool. Then just screw the keyless chuck on that shaft. If your having trouble with the original non-adjustable chuck, it's probably because it's just wedged in too tight. After you remove the chuck holder use a tool to pry out the collet.Another solution:Try using a tapered wood screw or sheet metal screw as an extractor. Choose one of a size that will let its tip go down into the broken collet and get a grip when you twist it. If that fails, you might use a screw extraction tool.

There should be a black circle on the side of the gun, use a thin object to push it out completely and the top should come right off

Not hard to remove at all it takes the place of the factory barrel bushing it's as simple as insert into the hole and then twist to installand remembering is as simple as turning itUntil the lug is out of the slot then pulling it out

If you are trying to remove a stuck barrel nut then a torque wrench is the LAST thing you would want to use.Stuck nuts require IMPACT.The PRI barrel nut wrench and a ball pen hammer work like a charm.

On the stock shroud, there is this ring where the barrel is inserts that blocks the apex from going in. You can take out this ring by taking apart your shroud, via the screws that's holding it together. I don't know about the mp5 shroud, maybe it's the same.

The next time you get it off, and before resealing it, you should always use a little bit of Vaseline to lube the threads of the housing. If you do that, the next time you remove it, it will be much easier. A tiny amount of Vaseline also helps seat the O-ring properly. Vinegar and a warm water soak is also recommended for your first removal. I have not tried that, but it is in the instructions and makes a lot of sense.

You put the tub wrench on, and give it a sharp whack with a hammer. The inertia of the tub keeps it from turning. David Seaquist says that the nut turns clockwise to loosen. I believe this is not correct. The tub is splined to the shaft. I believe it is a normal right-hand thread. There are videos on YouTube that show how to remove this nut.

Yes, the handle can be removed. It comes in (if I remember correctly) 3 pieces and I am pretty sure the 'mounts' for the bar are flush with the rest of the metal ring.

Couldn't you just use a Glock punch tool? Seems to me like pressing on the nub should enable you to move it off.
