    IIRC, the stock one is just a weight, bit of loctitite on the grub screw, so a little heat will do it..

    The 90 I briefly had had the weight loctited on and took a bit of heat to get it off.

    never seen a threaded one (unless it's aftermarket)

    Thanks.
    It sounds like the muzzle weight version. Personally I would leave as is, you could be left with some unsightly marks once you have wrestled it off! If you are after a silencer you could get someone to turn you an adaptor that slid over the muzzle weight, it could look cool if it was the same diameter as the silencer

    They are either press fit and loctited or are held with grub screws. I have not heard of one that was threaded unless it was done afterwards.
