Does anyone have any experience removing the weaver style gas block on a RRA Stnd A4?  What about the RRA Muzzle Break?  I am looking to install a free float tube.

there are 2 pinch bolts in the bottom of the gas block loosen these and the gas block should be able to be tapped off the front of the barrel.  a little heat will help if it is still tight.  Te muzzle brake is silver soldered I believe, must be heated up to the solder melt point, then spun off.

Thanks!  I appreciate the info.  I ordered the rifle a month ago and have not taken delivery yet.  Just trying to get ahead of the game for some modifications.

What is the best technique to heat up the muzzle break to that point?
