How big a pain in the ass is this red Loctite going to be?

[palmettomoon]

So I'm taking an AR lower apart & I see William Robert has been here before me (I'll call him that since he did have a G2 SSA trigger installed correctly) and use RED LOCTITE on the threads of the buffer tube. Hiw to best get this off the poverty pony lower without damaging it?

Heat gun. Remove plastic parts. 260f will do it. Chuck it up in a vise. I use a laser temp gauge to tell the temp. Do not use to much force turning off or you could wrap the lower before temp is reached. Remove tritium sights from part if equipped. Heat up slowly, start low and work up. On screws, a sharp blow will brake the bond, screw driver with hammer. That is what I do.
