I have an FNX .45 with a threaded barrel.
For some reason I can't remove the barrel cap. So, my question is, are suppreser threads regular or reversed?

Thanks

wrap a piece of leather around protectice cap, as gently as you can grip that with pliers and then turn. I had a tough time getting mine off but I had been silly and used blue locktite on it until I was going to get a suppressor. Took a torch and some patience.

lol, they are RH threads so if you were to "hypothetically" look down the barrel from the muzzle end, the thread protector would go righty tighty lefty loosey

OK, thanks. I figured they were normal threads. Will try penetrating oil.
