How does 1 go about getting a permanent flash hider off of a barrel?

Generally the procedure is based on knowing what type of FS and the brand of upper/barrel.

Different manufacturers install them in different ways, how 'bout a little more info????

So guys won't have to break out the crystal ball to answer your question.......

Depends on how it was made "permanent". If it was silver soldered, heat it up with a MAPP torch until it will spin off. If it is a pin & weld, then cut/grind/file the weld over the pin and pull it out, and then spin the FH off. If its a RRA with a pressed on FH, there's a little more involved.
