Flash hider removal

Featured Replies

I bought a BCM upper and it came in with a flash hider. I bought a nj legal muzzle brake and I want to put it on. But before I do, I wanna ask if the thread is reverse thread or not? And also what are some easier ways and tricks for removal? Thank you

If you have no use for it, just take a dremel and cut 9/10 of the way through on both sides then just crack it apart.

If the flash hider isn't pinned/welded then you just unscrew it with a wrench using the flats of the flash hider.  If your upper has a >14.5" length barrel then most likely the flash hider is not pinned/welded.

Not reverse threaded. Rightie tightie, lefty loossey.

Thank you I will try to tackle it today after work. I have no use for the flash hider but before I try to cut it off I'm going to try to back it off. Going to replace it with a Miculek comp.

Believe me I know, I have the same comp on another rifle. It's loud.. Do u recommend anything better for under 100$? I was considering the stag 3G comp or rock river arms directionally tuned and ported muzzle brake

I have YHM brake, almost as loud, just as annoying, to me anyways. No history on the two you mentioned. Sorry.

i just installed one for a buddy and we both loved it when he too kit out but it is extremely loud if your next to it.

I love my Miculek.  The thing has no muzzle rise.  

I have the Griffin break and I think it's the best one I have ever used. It looks a lot like the Spikes one. I haven't ever used the Spikes comp but the Griffin has been great and no one complains about it being to loud. I also have the YHM and I don't even like that one, the people around me hate it to say the least, it works pretty well but the Griffin is so much better. I think I paid $85 for it.

I got the flash hider off and got the compensator on, now all I've gotta do is weld it. Thanks for the guidance.

Silver solder it screw welding it

What don't mean by silver solder?

No experience silver soldering anything myself, but would the heat treatment discolor the finish on some of the parts if not done correctly?

You might want to index that comp correctly.....

It is correct, the rifle is laying horizontal in a table. That's why it looks side ways. Gimme some credit lol!! I'm a right handed shooter, Jerry Miculek directions are to index the comp to the 1'oclock position, which it is
