| So whoever said rockset doesn't hold is crazy. So I am trying to remove a gas block that i rocksetted and it won't budge, I am soaking it in water now but does anyone have any other suggestions? |

what kind of gas block? where did you put the rockset? And why?
I have used it on my suppressor QD flash hiders but only because I don't want them moving even a hair (worried about can). For those, I just use a bit of torque on the flash hider to remove it. Takes a lot of torque but it finally gives. If you put it on some screws used to clamp or set on the gas block, I couldn't imagine how to get them out. I would guess they would strip way before the rockset was broken. In that case, I would drill them out. Or did you put it between gas block and barrel? in that case, some heavy torque on it with barrel in a vise would be what I would try. Good luck! |
| I am not familiar with the properties of rockset, that said, loctite red, will give once heated enough. I had to remove a loctited' gas block, it was a muther but I heated it with a heat gun ( torch will work but be judicious) and after a bit it gave. Go slow , be patient. |
