I shot it to the point in my ar to which it’s now stuck in the suppressor and I don’t want to jack anything up. Any recommendations? Haven’t tried shooting it to see if the heat will help in releasing it when I go wrenching on it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

There was a video i watched when I did mine. Get some high strength red loc-tite (high temp is red also, which might work also).
Put loc-tite on the muzzle threads and reinstall can/adapter. Wait 20 minutes. Use a strap wrench to bust can loose. On mine i couldn't get enough "grip" so I tool a bicycle inner tube, cut out a section and pulled it over the can.
Worked like a champ.

Ment to quote you in that post above. If you have ever played with red loctite you would know that even 5 mins can require wrench and heat to remove. 24 might give you an extra 5% but if the suppressor was tightened with hands only 20-30 minutes should be plenty.

After getting a brake stuck after a 12 hour cure, I wait 24.
