Hey!! I had the same problem. I ended up using a my dads vice in his garage and a crescent wrench. I removed the handguards(where the barrel is much thicker) and used a piece of leather around the barrel and a small piece on edge of the FH to prevent marring. I couldn't believe how tight the FH was torqued on from the factory. I also tried the brute strength thing, well I guess I'm not that strong hehehe. |

I dont mean to question your brain power, but are you sure it isnt perm. attached?
Ok past that, secure the bbl however you may, then use the DPMS tool. I use the upper reciever jig, pin the upper to it, and use the wrench. |

I use a combination armorer's wrench. Couldn't get flash hider off an OLY with a regular wrench. Didn't have any blocks to hold the upper and barrel in place so I sat on the barrel and with the armorers wrench the FH came right off.
