I am replacing the barrel on a 9mm AR15. I need to know what I need to torque the new barrel to once it is installed. Thanks for the help.

  From the Army Maintenance Manual:
  50 ft. lbs., on a 5.56, then tighten to align rod through nut (for gas tube).
  
  Not positive if it is the same on a 9mm. Same receiver, same type barrel, just shorter chamber.
