Depends on the weapon. On an M16A2, for example, you can unscrew the thing
(which, in SR, would be rating 1, or maybe 0) but you're not allowed to in
the US Army. On the other hand it is also easily possible to machine a gas
vent into the end of a barrel (as is the case with some target pistols,
AFAIK).
In SR, though, I figure that any gas vent is removable -- if not with a
screwdriver, then with a hacksaw.
And yes, I am aware that in SR3 (page 280) it says that gas vents cannot
be removed once installed. I don't see why they would be designed that
way, though...
