Muzzle nut weld removal on Draco non-c pictures.
8/9/2011 8:42:24 PM
Got my Draco last week and put 100 rounds through it and loved it. Not a single hiccup, and pretty accurate out of the box. Only thing I didn't like was the welded muzzle nut. Had a couple spare slant breaks laying around so I took some hand files to the weld. If you're looking to do the same and nervous or not sure how much material to remove; I took some pictures. Used a cheap set of hand files. Started with a triangular file to set the edge, straightened it with a square file, and took off most of the material with a flat file. Once I got almost through, I could feel it getting loose and vice grips lightly got it free. Took maybe 20 minutes. Hope these help.

Oh yea....and remember that it is reverse threaded. So it not lefty losie, rightie tighty; but the other way around.
Don't ask me how I found out.

I used a 2 dollar hand saw on mine, worked out pretty well

Dremel with a fiber wheel, then jewelers files to dress up the FSB, then cold bluing.

I plan on using a dremmel to get mine off eventually

I got mine off, no problem.
Best thing to remember is not to worry about the hurting the nut, just worry about not hitting the threads.
