Anyone know whrere I can buy..., or rent a 24mmx1.5 right hand thread die? I do a lot of low light Coyote hunting & I really like the performance of the Krinkov 4-piece F/H!! I want to put one on my AR-15 Varmint Barrel!  Size wise.., it looks like the .920" muzzle on my Varmint Barrel is a perfect canidate for 24mmx1.5 Threads! |

Well if those are Right hand (normal) threads you can get p/n 18-502-240 from Travers Tool Co. for $20.79 (plus shipping) Just search for pg 161 or 18-502-240 |
| Im not sure their description is correct. Ive never seen a LH 24mm thread, but who knows? hinking.gif |
Not mine. My bulgarian krinkov is 24mm normal threading. Screws on like a nut onto a bolt. |
|
24x1.5mm die = $23 It is a 2" round die so you will need a 2" round die stock(handle) = $9.50 www.victornet.com/cgi-bin/victor/index.html Perfect fit? 24mm = .9449" |

I would never use a die to cut threads on a barrel unless it was impossible to fit the barrel in a lathe ( and I have not found a barrel that couldn't be done in a lathe.) Dies are ok for cleaning up threads, or thread repair. About the only thing I will use dies for is cutting NPT threads (pipe). |
No problem if you know how to do it! I've Threaded several SAR-2 muzzles by hand with 100% sucess!! I guess it's just a matter of ability, and the skill to make, and use a good alignment tool!!  Of course if I had a lathe I would use it...., but me no got...., so me make do!! |
Ok...., near perfect!! The ID @ the threads of the FH is .890" I'll get a pretty good bite of .030" |
|
UPDATE: Got the Die from Victory machine. Threaded my AR-15 Bull barrel and screwed on the Bulgy Krinkov F/H Works AWESOME!! You can shoot the damn thing without ear plugs....,(great for varmint hunting!!) it really concentrates the muzzle blast & most of the noise straight forward..., it's unreal!!! And there's a bonus........., it looks totally evil!!  I'll post a pic as soon as I can figure out how!!
