I kept seeing references to a Handguard Removal Tool, when I started collecting the parts for my 604 build. Saw it so many times I finally had to Google it, to see what it is/was. I never in my time in used one or heard of one, we just put our assss behind them and removed them by hand.

Is this a commercial designed tool or a legit tool, used by the military....? I tried to Google that and couldn't find a definitive answer. What say yall?

I just remove it by hand.

Ditto, just curious if it was a commercial thing or if it is used in the military.

The Delta ring has a pretty strong spring, so the handguard removal tool just helps you to pull it back without breaking your fingers in the process. Don't know if the military armorers have a similar tool. I have one and it works well.
