Question Cleaning Muzzle Break

Is there a way to get inside the muzzle break?? I want to clean it out, but not sure how. It looks like part of it can come off, any ideas or links??

They have a set of plastic picks. of course CLP and a straw would probably work also.

Its not a "normal" break, its skinny at the muzzle then gets fat then goes skinny again at the barrel. cant seem to get inside it too well. was just seeing if any other Hakim owners found a way to remove the cap without the tool.

Yes Use A Slightly Over-Sized Nylon Cleaning Brush And Hoppes #9 Solvent..

Well I need to frequent this forum more, you can remove the very front of the muzzle break if I am not mistaken it has a round metal rod going around it ending with a hook that goes in after you have threaded it back on. It is not the easiest to remove but you can still get it off.
