190 Barrel nut wrench

I just bought an old Winchester 190 22LR in real nice condition. I'm looking for a barrel nut wrench or a pic of one so I can make one. Any help would be appreicated.

Win 190

Weren't they press fit at the factory? I know the 200 series were.

nut

Sir:
I assume you know it's a nut since you see you need a wrench - those were put in with a nut.
I'd take the bbl out, clean it up and check the threads and align it and put some loc-tite on the threads and with an improvised wrench screw the nut in pretty tite, but not stripping the threads. Then put a piece of flat lead or soft metal and smack the end of the bbl. and see if the nut will go further.
Ought to hold.

As long as we are talking 190's, anyone have a good tip for putting the recoil spring and guide rod back in after cleaning? I find that such a pain I almost never shoot the 190.
