Works only on old style AR-10 barrel nut
The newer (A2 and on) AR-10 has a smaller barrel nut that has the outside dimensions of an AR-15 nut. Construction looked good, probably the right tool for the job on the correct rifle. Note: The PRI AR-15 wrench will not work on the AR-10A2 because the barrel diameter is larger than the AR-15 and the hole in the center of the tool is not large enough to fit. PRI tells me they plan to make a new version of this wrench with pins for both style nuts on either side.
