There are a few ways to remove an aug flash hider.

  • One way is to use a grinding wheel to remove the threads.
  • Another way is to use a punch and hammer to drive the locking ring out of the flash hider.
  • A third way is to drill out the locking ring using a drill bit that is slightly smaller in diameter than the ring.

Once the ring is removed, the flash hider can be unscrewed from the barrel.

Several methods can be used to remove an aug flash hider.

The most common method is to use a pipe wrench, but a bench vise or C-clamp can also be used.

If the flash hider is on tight, it may be necessary to use a hammer and chisel to break it free. Be sure to wear safety goggles when using this method, as metal chips may fly off of the flash hider and potentially cause injury.

One is to use a vise clamp to hold the flash hider still and then use a hacksaw blade to cut through the barrel.

Another is to drill out the barrel with a drill bit that is larger in diameter than the barrel.

A third option is to use a blowtorch to heat the flash hider and then use pliers to twist it off.

One way is to use a heat gun and apply heat to the flash hider until it becomes soft. Once it’s soft, you can use a tool such as pliers to twist it off.

Another way is to use a hacksaw and cut off the flash hider. Make sure you’re careful not to cut into the barrel.

A third way is to use a cartridge removal tool. This tool clamps onto the barrel and forces the flash hider off.

You can use a pipe wrench, vise grips, or a hacksaw. However, the easiest way is to use a bench grinder. Just be sure to use a grinding wheel that is specifically made for cutting metal.
