| I have monkied around with a few Ars but none had any type of muzzle device, I am trying to tell a buddy how to change out his Flash Hider and I realized I have never taken one off, this is just screwed onto an A2 barrel not a Perm attached. What tool should you use to unscrew it? |
|
so there was no washer on there? basically a ring that sits on the barrel behind the flash hider, a peel washer being silvin in color and when closely inspected there are layers which are peeled to achieve proper timing of fh. a crush washer has a convex and concave sides to it which crush or flatten when torqued to allow proper timing. |
depends on the barrel, sometimes the threaded shank on the muzzle is so long that the FS stops short of the step on the barrel and instead tightens on the muzzle. best to clamp the barrel near the muzzle using vise blocks, skinny barrels are easily bent when pressure is applied to the far end of the clamped section. |
