Reply With QuoteI cut a Wheeler type down into a "crow foot". It fits on a flex handle, and can remove the barrel without removing the scope. I still use the standard wrench to do a " first time" barrel removal.
Is there any other barrel wrenches out there other than the wheeler type?
maybe something like a crowfoot type?

See Apache gun works. They have them.
By "crow-foot" you mean a wrench with a square hole for putting a large ratchet or breaker bar style handle into? Northland Shooter Supply has these also...
NSS has a lovely one. All the holes you could want.
Also by far the best action wrench.
Nice to deal with.
He also has a lot of the other bits and pieces needed or wanted, nut, recoil lug, I think some of the head space gauges, springs to change a Hunting acu trigger to Varmint pull of 1.5 lbs.
You have to get through to him though. NSS is a slam dunk phone call.Originally Posted by strut64
Great info thanks
By "crowfoot ", I mean I cut the end out of it and thinned it down so it will fit under the mounted scope on a barreled action, installed in action blocks. Thus, the barrel can be removed without removing the mounted scope.
You might get by with a NSS short barrel nut wrench and then cut about 1/3 of it off, so you're left with a semi-circle cog wrench, instead of a full circle. Something like a crow foot wrench, but more like a toothy jack-o-lantern smile
Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.
^ That's a better way to put it ^. But I made My shortie out of a full length Wheeler, by cutting it off. And as I said, I use a flex handle in the square hole. I ended up with the extra Wheeler that came with the almost "useless" smooth nut wrench I ordered.
Because I got bored with basket weaving class ;-)), I made a second "cog wrench" out of the "useless" end of the standard Wheeler wrench by filing the rounded teeth square.
Just the therapeutic, thought free, mindless work I needed at the time. And I didn't even have to take a pill ;-)) !
