I need some help installing my Gemtech Vortex/Bilock for my G5.
I need to remove the flash suppressor of my SIG Classic 556. I tried a wrench--no good. I tried a longer screw driver thru the flash suppressor to increase the torque--no good.
I figure they must have LocTited it on--so I gently heated the flash suppressor with a propane torch--still no good.
I tried heating hotter--LocTite Red needs to get to about 600 degrees to melt--So I heated the flash suppressor until 50/50 solder melted on it and tried a wrench AND long screw driver--STILL NO GOOD! That mofo is on there pretty darnd tight!
I'm to the point of sending it to SIG--but they haven't answered emails or calls, so I'm screwed on that idea, too. I've waited 30 minutes on hold with 7 callers ahead of me...
Can anyone offer some assistance?
Thank you.
