Yes, there are many reports of them being on incredibly tight. Heating may help. What method are you using to attempt removal? How are you securing the barrel? A barrel vice would provide optimum holding. Held close to the joint between barrel and Brake. Then either a clamp wrench or a thin enough rod like a screwdriver, to go through the holes in the brake, (again, closest to the Barrel/Brake joint) and use it to loosen the Brake.
