Pics would help a lot... I don't think they made a 10" fixed barrel, but who knows. No notches on either side of the nut?

No Notches on either side, George. I could send a pic to someone if they would post it for me.

unless the nut is flipped over, this is a fixed barrel I guess... waiting for George to answer me if he can remove the barrel from shroud.

George:
It's been my experience, IIRC, that there is no visible nut at the front of the shroud of a fixed barrel gun.
I think SHOOT may be right that the nut was put on bass-ackward. Careful use of a cold chisel and hammer should start it rotating for removal.

With a barrel vise, which is standard procedure for most all other brands, I believe.
Here's the end of a Fixed Barrel M15...

You can tap on the forcing cone end w/ a mallet enough to expose the nut and grip w/ (protected) pliers. I just tried it w/ my 41 spare barrel and shroud. A squirt of kroil or other lubricating oil between the barrel and shroud may help...

Yes,
I agree, if this is just a shroud, barrel and nut...the spanner slots could have been smooshed upon removal at some point, threaded on backwards and driven into the shroud. I know mine the barrel nut fits very "perfect?" in the recess in the shroud. I would put an old sock or a rag over the muzzle side and whack it firmly with a mallet at the cone end, if the hole she-bang lets go the cloth will keep the barrel and suspect nut from flying accross the room.
If it's on the gun, I would use a good ice pick device and keep it as on center of the backwards nut while in a barrel vice and reverse it out like that.
I used the pointed punch to remove the cloverleaf wheel nut-locks on a Vette with aluminum wheels using this technique.
Just a thought.

Is the pic that SHOOT posted George's barrel ? If looking at the rear end of barrel
turn/twist clockwise would loosen nut and barrel ? Previous owner had to have
tightened this in the same but reverse manner.

Glad you got it apart.
I must say, whoever put it together like that sure did it the hard way!
