Sometimes the threads are reversed so it would be righty-loosey :: lefty-tighty. It might be the same on your gun.

also there is sometimes a pin that keeps it from turning. so check around the flash hider for anything like a pin etc.

There is nothing like that around the flash hider and i know what to look for because my friend has the grub screw keeping it in. do you know if the flash hider could have been glued on?

RIGHT. Sometimes all it takes is some plyers to break the seal of the glue. Only do this if your flash hider is metal and be careful not to chip the paint.

Heating it with a hair dryer can help to break the bonds of the glue and make it easier to get started with some pliers.
