Henners Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 Thanks MisterG, much appreciated - my main concern was how to successful remove the metal pins which appear to have had the tops cut off them, so they are flush with the plastic of the flash hider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skara Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Just break them. Those pins are directly threaded into the flash hider's plastic and most of the times they're inserted in weird ways, stripping the threads.. Or carefully unscrew them with a small flat head screw driver or allen key. Tilt the tool to one side to have more grip (it'll damage the pin, but honestly who cares, you won't need them anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
