I would really like to find a good smith that can thread my barrel without having to wait a few weeks. I am temped to take my AK brake off myself and just buy a tap. Is there not a good, while I wait, semi close, not too expensive place to get a barrel threaded? I have a machining background so I know what it takes. HELP! ByteTheBullet (-: |
Silly rabbit. If you even think about using a tap, I'm beat you with the biggest stick I can find. Don't come crying to me when you end up with baffle strikes.  Quality - Cost - Time Pick two. Go to Patriot Arms and pay the $100 and wait the couple weeks. Have no worries. Or... Call David's Gun Room and ask for Rusty Kidd. Tell him I sent ya. See if he can do it faster for you. Before I go, I must say I am SO glad to see you finally ditch that stupid brake. I still remember the days of having to stand by you at CE and listen to that damn thing. Gives me shivers just thinking about it.  Mark |
Dude, we ARE helping you.  Just because you don't like the answers doesn't mean we are giving you the wrong answer. Now, call Rusty or Jered before I have Bradd_D and ARH come reenact a certain scene from Deliverance. I bet chainshaw would want in on that action too.  Marky |

yea I have heard that, plus the top cover has alot of blow back I have also heard. my thoughts are that my AR shoot 7.62x39 and my rifle I am building is also .308. I have several AKs so since the can would work the caliber why not get an adapter that will take it, but it sounds like the threading might be a whole other issue. |
Sounds like I need to break out the CETME for a few mag dumps. Random day at CE: pop pop pop I load and make ready my CETME BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!!! (in unison) Delta you ASSHOLE!!!!!!! I can't do any shooting right now though. I have a bum shoulder right now, and even picking up an empty rifle right now makes me see stars from the pain.
