AK, AR just a few letters off. Wouldn't this do better in the AK-47 section?

My latest Bushmaster barrel was double pinned - a pin on each side of the barrel @ 90 and 270 degrees - if 0 degree is straight up

Grind around the brake with a belt sander until u can see the outline of the pin(s) then drill them out with a drill press until they spin, then u should be able to  knock the last bit of the pin out -I had to split my flash hider to unscrew it, as I could not remove it even with use of a barrel vise and a 24" breaker bar

what? its a bushmaster AR with a AK 74 brake.

My mistake. I saw AK-74 and thought thats what you were talking about.
