How to remove stuck buffer tube???

AR/M4 AR Technical Discussion

I have a Bushmaster lower with a A2 stock on it… I’ve tried to remove it and it’s super tight… Any suggestions on how to get the darn thing off without destroying the tube??? I have a wrench to remove buffer tubes and it was no help…
Thanks

I would by some Kroil and put that on the threads. If that doesn’t work then I would apply some low heat as it is possible someone put some crap on the threads.

a strap wrench might work but you could risk denting the buffer tube

use a hair dryer or heat gun on the threads to help soften the locktite
