Re: Larue freefloat rail installation probs...
I have one but the longer version, bought off here and it do d exactly the same thing. Nothing I could do would sort it out so I gave up. And I'm no numpty either, I've fitted many rails over the years.
I noticed why it was doing it though in the end though. The barrel nut part that bites down on the barrel base is very thin and I think flexes. Mine flexed so much it snapped so I now have a sort of hula hoop metal ring clinging on by a few last bits of metal to the inside of the barrel nut. The noveske rail I bought off the same guy was fine. Possibly a new and stronger barrel nut would do the trick, the only ones I can find though are for gbbr. I know a G&G one that although looks identical won't fit, the G&G one however is far stronger by the looks of it - thicker.
