Wrench alone isn't enough to unscrew it?

$5 c clamp from lowes. Coffee table. beer coaster.
Put coaster on coffee table, put upper on that, clamp down to table. wrench on the flash hider. Crude but it works. |

Googled answer:
1 w/ Soaking the muzzle end in water. * You can see a white haze coming from the brake/barrel joint. I used boiling water and the brake came off with as much pressure as when it was installed. btw: I forgot about the water step at first and the brake was on like the the name = RockSet After some sweat and choice words I remembered a mention to use water. Had one of those growing up wise father told me moments "Smarter not harder". Glad I was alone. |

Oh, rockset... hit it with a bernzomatic for about 20-30 seconds first, twist it right off just like anything else.
I have done this 3x with AAC mounts, and a few times with red Loctite on the set screws of a lo pro gas block. It works. I have taken them off by wedging the grip between my calves. It works most times, if not, I use the vice. |

Wrap the barrel in some damp leather, or something else that can grip the barrel and protect it from damage, clamp down on the barrel as tight as you can get it, then take off the muzzle brake with a regular wrench. Very easy. |
