I bought a 14.5" Rifle that has a flash ider on it to make it 16". Now the "pin" is ground down so i cant take i toff. If i wanted to make this into an SBR/change the flash hider can this be taken off?

if you make it into a SBR, get your tax stamp then remove it.

If you wish to change the flash hider and not make a SBR, remove your flash hider, put the new one on, and either blind pin, pin&weld over, or 4 welds from the FH to barrel.   This is required to meet the 16" min barrel length.

Instructions on how to remove a permanently attached flash hider are about 3/4 of the way down on this page
