Does anyone know how to do this? Do you need a special tool? i've never had a reason to remove the one from my AR so I've never done this before but I'm putting a suppressor on the MPX so it needs to go. Thanks!

Once I remembered it was left hand threaded, mine came right off with a crescent wrench...

Left handed metric thread. Righty loosey, lefty tighty.  Regular AR flash hiders will not work without an adapter. Make sure your Can has a metric adapter available. The adapter would be the same as one that is used in the Sig P226.

Seriously? I kinda wonder what they were thinking with the left handed threading.

LH threads also tend not to loosen like 1/2x28RH threads do.
