Ratcheting AR-15 Endplate and Castle Nut

The K2 castle nut and endplate from Fortis features a locking lever to ensure your buffer tube never backs out, without need for staking or threadlocker.  The robust yet lightweight endplate has a built-in QD socket for sling swivels, and retains an anodized castle nut with audible and tactile locking.  This systems ends up secure and robust, and unlike other ratchet systems, can be easily uninstalled if you choose.

You can check out how the K2 system works in the video below, as well as the K1 friction-fit castle nut and endplate.

Going Into My Junk Parts Bin

I installed using the instructions found on the Fortis MFG youtube channel. Hand tightened, then (with a Real Avid armorer's wrench) tightened to two clicks. Immediately, I noticed that the buffer tube rotated slightly very easily. Maybe not tight enough. Then I tried to go to three clicks -- the castle nut turned under the lips on the end-plate and pushed the armorer's wrench off of the nut. This caused the nut to get dinged up a little. At three clicks, the buffer tube still rotated slightly. I knew that I would have to remove this and try this on another lower (just to be sure it wan't a problem with a specific lower). Removal caused the castle nut to ding up further. I tried it on a second lower with the same issue at two clicks. Removed and went back to mil-spec with no issues.

So sorry to hear about the issue, PLJ. Please reply to us via email we'd like to further help.

Works like a charm

Product was easy to install and works great, no need for staking. A little on the pricey side but it’s a quality product that looks good, does the job and easy to remove if needed. Recommend
