    That has become an issue with QD flash hider mounts. If you wait too long, it will give you a problem when being removed. You might want to remove it periodically during periods of extended shooting.

    just a tip... welding "anti spatter spray" helps prevent carbon buildup, both in suppressors and on flashhiders.

    Gunzilla works great on getting that carbon off. It works like nothing else I have seen, a couple of sprays, wait a few minutes and it wipes right off

    I noticed some nasty build up on the end of my barrel, outside the crown... What is this anti-spatter trickery you speak of?
    Do I put it in the can? and is a spray can?

    Can you tell I am new to owning a suppressor?
