Forward Controls Design CN5F A5 Castle Nut, Burnt Bronze

CN5F castle nut for Vltor A5 system The CN5F castle nut by Forward Controls Design is an advanced iteration of our renowned CNF model, tailored specifically for the exceptional Vltor A5 system. Since its inception in 2018, the CNF has set a standard in durability and functionality and the CN5F builds upon this legacy with precision enhancements. Extended design - the CN5F is engineered to be 0.1 inches longer than its predecessor, maximizing coverage of the threaded area on a receiver extension (RE) without compromising backward compatibility. This ensures that even the longest carbine stocks can fully collapse on both the Vltor RE-A5 and our RE5F. Compatibility - while the CN5F is optimized for the Vltor A5 system, it maintains versatility by also functioning with standard TDP spec length REs. However, users should note that the additional length may prevent full stock collapse on these standard REs. Enhanced Staking notches - addressing common feedback, the CN5F features longer and deeper staking notches. This design choice reinforces the nut's stability once installed and staked, ensuring it remains secure unless intentionally adjusted by the user. User-friendly design - the CN5F eliminates the discomfort of using wrench notches as serrations during installation. This thoughtful design consideration enhances the user experience, making installation smoother and more efficient. Robust construction - crafted from billet machined 4140 PH steel and finished with a Cerakote Burnt Bronze coating, the CN5F exemplifies durability and aesthetic appeal. As with all Forward Controls Design products, it is proudly manufactured in the USA, reflecting our commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The CN5F castle nut is not just a component - it is a testament to our dedication to innovation and excellence in firearm accessories. It represents a seamless blend of tradition and modernity, ensuring that your AR system remains reliable and robust.
