I'd wager real money that compensator is threaded onto the barrel and secured with adhesive along the lines of Rocksett or a high strength threadlocker. Any lesser means would shoot loose in no time.
I suspect they used Loctite 271 on there as coincidentally that's the same adhesive used to secure the Briley bushing in place once screwed into the end of the slide.. You loosen that stuff with a bit of heat. To remove a Briley bushing you heat the end of the slide/bushing up to about 400°f with a heat gun then flip the gold nitrided ring out to 90° and use that as a handle to unscrew the bushing from the slide.

Industrial heat gun only...no torch. I bet that Comp will turn right off with a little heat

Cheers
Bill
