CFX muzzle brake...does it need to be removed before using a spring compresser?
« on: December 14, 2007, 07:21:14 PM »
Juuussst about ready to dissassemble my CFX .22 for an internal inspection/tune and wondered if the muzzlebrake can take the stresses of a spring compressor, or does the brake need to be removed first? The brake is the stock one...not one of Gene's beatiful babies.

Good to know...thanx



Didn't want to see parts flying, ruined CFX, and possible bodily injurywhile simply compressing the spring :-)
