Can anyone help me get the locking block out of a Beretta 92 Barrel? All three that I own have the locking block in pretty tight. Is there a trick to getting them out? I just got an aftermarket barrel, but I want to use the factory locking block. Thanks in advance.

Press it in so it is flush with the barrel, hold it in, tilt the barrel so it points straight up, and slide it out sideways.
 
The locking block was very tight on my new 92FS. Although I could see that it would simply slide off of the barrel, it was so tight that it would not. After 1000 rounds or so, just turning the barrel over will cause it to fall out. In conjunction with the previous post, you may want to put oil around where it meets the barrel to give it some lubrication. On my gun, I found that there is a “magic angle” at which it will come out more easily. Just keep working at it, (I would think you shouldn’t have to force it), and you’ll get it off.
