If you really want to be sure, take the upper, or just the barrel, to a gunsmith and have them either grind the threads off or silver solder a cap permanently on where there's no chance that it will come off. Or buy a longer threaded barrel and have it cut down to a still legal length.
Don't assemble the barrel or upper onto a lower until you've got that taken care of. |

Thread protector. Permanent (red) loctite. The type that requires a torch to remove. I've done that on a few. There's no way to remove the thread protector without other tools, and time. The same rationale for soldering on the thread protector. The same tools will be able to remove a soldered, or loctited, tp.

I've never heard red loctite referred to as permanent. A torch, often just a heat gun and at times no heat at all to get it loose.

You can get a permanent version of it that requires decent heat to remove. You're not gonna remove it with a zippo at the range.

Would a flash can like a Noveske Flaming Pig be good to go? Its a flash enhancer, not a break and not a flash hider.
