Twist it counter-clockwise until it threads off?

I don't know about their pistols, but I have removed a couple of their carbine buffer tubes. It wasn't easy. They use some kind of thread locker or glue on the threads. It is going to take quite a bit of force. Support the receiver properly or you'll likely break it.
Good luck. |

Use the "strap wrench"- I used one w/ the bike chain. Make sure you wrap your tube around w/ wet cloth so it doesn't get damage then tighten the chain. Tube was very on tight. And make sure you turn counter clockwise though. I asked the same question to RRA tech, and he told me to do the above,
BTW, I didn't use heat gun and didn't use vise (nice to have) either. |
