The nut wrench is too thin.
Removed the barrel nut on my 112, using great care, not to mar the nut. The wrench provided is quite thin, and I was expecting it to leave tool marks. It didn't, and I was surprised. The tool does work, but I'd much prefer something with twice the contact surface. I soaked the barrel for two days with Kroil, and Hoppes #9, at the barrel/nut juncture, and it came loose with minor wrestling. This was the factory original, and it had been torqued to over 60 lbs when installed. The Wheeler Nut Wrench would be adequate, if I buy another, and braise the two together. The contact area would be perfect at that thickness. In all fairness, the wrench did work, but I'll be looking for something more substantial.
