Does anyone know if the AGM CQB m4 newest run has threats under the orange tip? if so does anyone know how to take off the tip?

first look at the orange tip along the edge. see if there is a small set screw used to hold it in place. if so remove that. if not its just glue. either way give its some force and it should break free.

To take off the tip, use a hair dryer to warm up the glue then turn the tip with a screwdriver[through the prongs]. If there are threads there then trying to force it free without melting the glue could break some of the threads.

When the shit hits the fan, dont be in front of the fan.

Are there screws?  Check first, then heat with a hair dryer, then unscrew slowly

If all else fails, a reciprocating saw and a die set will do nicely.

Some have a small roll pin on the bottom of the Red FH, very small about 1/16 diameter, if so this can be opened up carefully with a Dremel around the pin so one can grip it with needle nose pliers and pull it straight out... That way if it is threaded you will not destroy the threads while unscrewing it...

Good Luck !!!

If the tip is plastic I use a hot air gun (or a small torch would work) to heat up the tip untill it starts to sag and almost fall off than just pry it off. You destroy the tip but it comes off leaving the threads clean.

small torch seems to work when all else doesnt. usually there is a set screw that is screwed in tight and topped off with some superglue. if u end up stripping the set screw take a small torch and heat up the area the set screw is at and when the plastic is soft just wrench it off with pliers. be carfeul it will be hot. u may end up with some plastic residue on the threads when u torch the tip but that will come of after a couple uses of fake suppresors or swaps of barrel tips
