How do I remove the flash hider?
« on: June 06, 2006, 11:46:56 PM »
One last question, how do I remove the metal flash hider on my CA G36C? I've read that theres a screw in the bottom but on mine I see no screw, are there any alternative ways to remove the flash hider?

You can't. I think the flash hider and outer barrel are one piece, at least for a certain part of the section. There might be a small grub screw underneath, but I think that's only on the Tokyo Marui ones.

Oh, okay. It might be glued. In which case....try removing it by force at your own peril.

because 1.) I think I might have to remove it to change out the inner barrel and 2.)It's all scratched up with very deep scratches that go through the paint. If there is an alternative to taking the inner barrel out please tell me how.

EDIT:I got it wiggle a little but it's still stuck.

you just take off the flash hider/barrel assembly, and the inner barrel is right there. if you have scratches on the flash hider, why dont you just repaint it?

Do you remember how to take off the hop up? I already know how to take everything else except the flash hider and hop up off.
