The izzy sucks as far as being a good flash suppressor.  Mine will be coming off shortly.
Anyway, here is your answer...

Have to take it to a gunsmith to remove the izzy because it is blind pinned in there.

14.5" barrels must have a perminately attached flash suppressor.

my bayonet came yesterday and it looks good on my gun. jackal does the m9 bayonet blade seem a little dull, or is it meant to be like that?

Although I never tried to cut anything with it, I don't think it is as sharp as a high quality kitchen knife.  I guess they are supposed to be like that.

Don't they have Arkansas stones up north?
Just get a good sharpening rig and you can shave with your M9.

The bayonet is not intended to be a cutting implement as much as a stabbing implement. It easily punctures soft tissue with a little force and a little twisting around in the gut causes fatal wounds.  The dull edge is not a problem if using the bayonet as intended.
