Hello everyone.

I just purchased a Umarex USA Heckler & Koch USP CO2 Airsoft pistol.
The build quality, accuracy and overall feel/weight is very good.
I'm loving the gun so far but this orange tip is really annoying me.

Has anyone had success in removing the orange plastic tip from this gun?
I tried twisting it off gently with a pair of pliers but it won't budge in either direction.
I then tried submerging the tip in boiling water but it still won't budge.
I can't see any screws so it's either glued on or threaded really tight.

Here's a picture of the gun:

Thanks,
Zak
