13/16".......it's not a torx? Your asking about the bolt that holds the stock comp on? Correct?

I'm looking at the 2014 parts & accessories catalog and the 2014 compensator is different. So I stand corrected and can't assist.

In the instructions, is that the tool that's listed as a T70 socket bit? Not sure if this is correct, but if it is, the instructions show a torque specification of 100 ft. lbs., loosen one-half turn, then torque to 175 ft-lbs. Under tools, it also says you'll need a primary drive locking tool.

Do you have a torque wrench to torque to 175 ft/lbs?
