Attaching The Forearm To The Handle On A Southwest

I have a Franklin Southwest and it has a weight bolt in the butt. I would like to take it out but it is glued in.

that is what i was told, that was one of kersenbrocks things, the handle has reverse threads on the tenon system in the handle... the forearm and butt screw onto the handle. i dont think they really care about balance points anymore, but jerry would adjust the balance point with the length of the brass joint pin (or the actual weight of it). my buddy has a predate that weighs like 18.5 oz. , they just have lost their drive to customize anymore. i received a brand new cue from them last year. it was birdseye and lacewood, that thing weighed like 22.5 oz. balance point about 15" from the butt. i mean wtf; pretty close to the 19 oz. 19" balance point i wanted.
Ummm. I think there was a lack of communication somewhere along the line.
 
The underwrap goes into the points and there is a threaded rod there as well. Their cues have 3- screws in them.
