Do you heat the front of the shroud and use needle nose pliers to get the shroud off the FX Impact?

Hi ronin
You need to heat the rear end of the shroud, a lot !!its well.loctited !!
Then put the barrel back in the rifle ,lock the barrel with the thumb screw then unscrew the shroud,it needs quite a lot of heat

I just unscrewed mine...pretty ease.
Clamp the barrel with a rag so you don't mar the barrel, then unscrew shroud.

Clamping the barrel is not the wisest thing to do,,mine was heavily thread locked,

Thanks folks. Mine was crazy thread locked. I thought I was going to permanently damage the shroud threading getting it off (but I did not). I ended up using lots and lots of heat! :s but it worked.

OH and by the way.... LOTS OF LEAD IN THERE!!! Those telescopic shrouds need cleaned from time to time.
