I Have A Panther and i was wondering what I need to do to switch the delta ring to a free float and if there is a kit I can get or a list of the parts and how to?


Thank You
 
It requires special tools that may cost more than having someone do it for you. Your gas block may also have to be replaced to a low profile if your going a longer guard, to a low profile. You have to compress the delta ring to remove the plastic hand guard, gas block, and barrel nut. Then install the barrel using the new nut (torquing to spec) at the same time getting the holes to line up for the gas tube. Install gas block, then hand guard.
 
If your DPMS does not have a door and forward assist, not all free floats will fit. It it is the standard mil-spec upper, any free float will work. Troy Industries makes a free float that fits the standard barrel nut after the spring and delta ring are removed but it has a tab that interferes with the bulkier Oricle upper. With patience and some time, the spring and delta ring can be removed without taking the barrel nut off.
