There was no way to separate the barrel nut from the HG so yup, it came off in one piece. Just heated it up for a while and used a pipe wrench, it broke free pretty easy. Now the nut and HG are one piece, but oh well, not on the radar to be used, it is heavier than a 12" Hand Guard I've installed.
I used my Sun Devil Upper in Burgundy. Looks great as I was hoping and dropped it on a lower just to have the excitement of another new toy. Pictures aren't the best but you get the idea.
