K:

They will probably not do it if the M-4 barrel will be under 16" without the brake. It may be possible to find a 'smith who will remove the old one and permanently attach a new one for you.

If it is a 16" barrel plus the brake, some may attempt it for you.

The properly attached muzzle devices are blind pinned on and welded.

Depending on your source, it may cost more to remove it than buying a new barrel and selling the old one.

HTH, good luck.
