    Mine is a different brand but two of the modules were tight together when I got it. Gunsmith said he thought they were loctited but I had a go next day when I was feeling stronger and they came apart with bare dry hands - no loctite in threads that I could see.

    Now I use a lithium grease between them and dismantle after most uses. Once got quite a bit of rainwater inside it carrying over my shoulder in spring weather. Green powder inside as if vapourised copper was mixed with the powder residue. No problems taking it apart at all.

    I reckon the suppressor, all its joints and attachment to the barrel is a key precision fit area of your rifle like scope mounts or bedding so try and keep them all clean no grit, no dings on the muzzle thread, modules snug and in same order. I only use 2/4 modules; suppressor is short and light and still does the job - no ringing shooting without protection. Real good.

    I clean mine and grease as per the instructions after around 25 shots.
    Comes apart real easy.
