I recently purchased a Daniel Defense MK18 RIS replica by Socom Gear from the commerce section. However, the person who I bought it from did NOT tell me that it would not come with all of the parts. So, when I tried assembling the RIS today I noticed that I could not get it to properly fit. So I looked online and noticed that one of the parts I needed was not included when I bought the RIS. I found out the part I need is called a Bolt Up System Barrel Nut. I am having no luck what so ever finding the replacement part. Can anyone find the replacement part or a substitute. Here is an image that displays what a Bolt Up System Barrel Nut does.  |

Ouch that sucks hard man. Contact the person you got it from and ask for the part. It's *kind of* important...  I had a similar issue where the barrel nut threads for my DD MK18 RIS didn't fit my new upper receiver threads, so I basically ended up re-threading them... Either way, the point is that I wasn't really able to find a new barrel nut like that. You can try looking on Redwolf or WGC, but your best bet is to contact the person you got it from. I see no reason why they wouldn't have it (considering it's necessary for installation). |

Otherwise, how would I re-thread my upper receiver? |

He meant that his barrel nut didn't fit the threading on his gun, so he had to rethread it. You should just contact the person and either get a refund or the barrel nut.

For future reference, you'd have to order it direct from Daniel Defense as I've heard that the RS ones can work with the replica rails as far as fitting under the rail goes. As for the airsoft receiver, you'd probably have to rethread it to get the DD nut to fit. Good thing the guy still had it.  |
