Does anyone know where I could find a thread adapter for a FAL barrel that would allow me to use more muzzle brakes or FH'S than the current?

Which FAL thread does your current barrel have?

Standard FAL threading is 5/8-24 left hand thread, as opposed to a number of other US and continental thread patterns for .308/7.62x51NATO rifles.

I believe that standard FAL threading is a 9/16-24 left hand due to the barrel thickness.

OP,
I picked up an adapter that went from the LH thread to a conventional 5/8-24 from TROS USA.  You'll probably have to email them about availability as the adapter isn't listed on the website.
