Trying to remove an LMT FSB to shave it for a Centurion CMR install.
Pins came out easy as pie(I was thinking this would be the difficult part).
I cant get the damn FSB off the barrel. I have pounded on things with a dead blow. I heated the SHIT out of the FSB with a torch trying to get it to expand ever so slightly so it would come off. No dice.
Im VERY leery of hitting on the crown/threads of the barrel with anything other than a dead blow.
I have access to a hydraulic press, but I just dont know if this is the way to go.
Should I attempt to turn the FSB on the barrel before trying to remove it?
My last resort is cancelling the order of the CMR and going with something like an Apex Handguards grip that uses the stock barrel nut, or something else, but I REALLY like the CMR.
