Dear admin,
Pin this highly informative thread for future reference. To anyone who is stuck with the M13x1 muzzle thread on their beautiful Steyr AUG, I have good news for you. After long searches for days, it is confirmed muzzle devices designed for ARs with 1/2-28 thread pattern Can successfully be rethreaded to M13x1 LH thread. It will stay on your muzzle ass tight, no worries of it blowing off. This is confirmed by two companies, RATWORX and White Sound Defense. In fact, they both have done the rethreading service and no customers came back complaining. AUG owners are now free to use any muzzle brakes in the market, you just gotta get it rethreaded. 
I will soon post a pic of mine rethreaded. |

This thread does not need to be pinned... I believe this was already common knowledge. Not to mention that several companies make devices in the proper thread.

I sent a 1/2-28 Levang Linear Comp to Ratworx for 13-1LH rethreading, after they told me they could do it.
The sent the comp back untouched, saying it was too hardened and would damage their tap, so they couldn't do it. |

I will soon post a pic of mine rethreaded. thank you for posting this. Tried a lot of other companies to re-thread a muzzle device and no one wanted to do it> |

Can you name at least half of the several you know? AAC? They only have 1 FH. Yes this thread should be pinned because you dont own one and you don't know what it feels like to have m13x1 lh. |

This isn't GD so the reading is for faggots doesn't apply in tech threads. Here's vellnueve's post right above: Quoted:

Emotional rednecks need not to get all feisty over a thing. All I am saying is AUG owners are not limited to few muzzle devices threaded specifically for M13x1.
In fact, there aren't several muzzle devices to choose for the AUG. All I am saying is they have the liberty to try all the muzzle devices out there that are better and cheaper. We should first grant him a medal for owning two AUGs. Then grant you a medal for acknowledging You deserve it. Quote HistoryQuoted:

If it mounts a suppressor they need to be rethreading on a lathe for concentricity. |

I asked Marvin Pitts about doing this a few years ago and he didn't think it was a good idea. There's not much meat left after doing so. You're talking about something threaded 12.7mm RH and rethreading it 13mm LH. I imagine it looks knurled afterwards. Got any pics?
