do you have the metal one or the plastic orange one? if it's the plastic orange one, I basically took an X-acto knife and heated the blade with a butane lighter (blue jet flame) until the blade was glowing orange and cut parallel to the barrel. I along the flash hider 3 times and put a butter knife through the holes and just wrenched the hider. it snaps apart and falls right off. then you just take the x-acto and clean up the threads a tiny bit.
But if you have the metal one... heat. heat the hider to the point that it expands larger than the thread. it might take a lot of heat to do it. also watch for that tiny little hex screw that is keeping it on the threads.
