So I found the answer.
TL;DR: Watch the video -VIDEO
I may be necro-ing an old thread but this is one of the first things you see after trying to google how to remove the barrel, so an answer here might actually be useful to a whole lot of people trying to get rid of the barrel.
An STTI/ASG version of the silencer barrel isn’t threaded, it sits in the silencer on a spring, and can be removed by removing the front part of the silencer (as opposed to rear part, that can be unscrewed on Tokyo Marui version of the silencer).
There's a small groove near the front of a barrel, where the front piece is glued to the main body. You have to carefully remove the piece using knife or a similar tool, getting rid of the glue.
It takes a fair amount of time (took me about an hour). Please note that while trying to remove the front piece, you will 100% do some damage to the silencer, effectively voiding the warranty for the pistol.
When you're finished, the front piece should come off and can be reinserted. So you can fill the silencer with foam pads (it’s a mock silencer, so it’s empty) and use the front piece again without the need of glue.
Finished removal should look like this:
