OK, so this bastard of a filter was stuck.  I tried twisting, I tried 
pressing it against my palm, I tried pressing it against my shoe like 
I've read in a few FAQ's...  Nope, wouldn't move.  Bastard!!  I tried 
heating it up, cooling it down afterwards.  Nope, wouldn't move.

I got pissed off.  I let it get personal.  35 minutes later, it gave 
me a near bloody hand and still wouldn't move.  So I did it.  I'm not 
proud, but I did it and it came loose...

I went into my gun toolchest, took out my Breakfree CLP, and sprayed 
it around the rim, gave it a few minutes to settle in, and tada!!!

Now it rides like it was on rails.  Hmmm, I wonder why that was never 
discussed in the FAQ's...  How the world went without CLP, I don't 
know...
