A: Hi Jack and welcome. There's a thin jam nut at the back of the rail between the rail and the receiver. The jam nut is the thin black ring between the handguard and receiver. The barrel nut is the internal nut with holes all around. You will loosen the jam nut by about 1/2 turn, then the handguard will unscrew from the barrel nut. You can leave the jam nut on the barrel nut when you remove the barrel nut. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!

A: On a Diamondback DB-15 5.56 NATO 16" Magpul CTR, the handguard is typically secured to the barrel using a free-float system with a barrel nut; this means the handguard is not directly attached to the lower receiver and can slide freely along the barrel, with the barrel nut tightened at the end of the barrel to hold the handguard in place. Key points about the handguard attachment: Barrel nut: The primary securing mechanism is a specialized nut that is threaded onto the end of the barrel and tightened against the handguard, ensuring a secure fit. Free-float design: This means the handguard is not touching the lower receiver, allowing for optimal accuracy by minimizing contact points and potential vibration. Alignment pins: Some handguards may also utilize small alignment pins to help position the handguard correctly on the barrel before tightening the barrel nut.
