My Maddi MISR S/A is unthreaded and measures 0.480" at the muzzle.
I'm thinking this diameter is too small to thread, from what I've looked at on-line for dies and breaks and what-not. Did find this adapter, but it's 0.500" and thinking it might be too loose http://ak-builder.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=30090 Any suggestions, or is any thought of threading this critter just hosed? |

With that OD, you might not be able to thread it 1/2-28 RH. The OD on my PARS RML was 0.490" and it worked. You can get the slant brake from CNC Warrior:

Thanks for the input, gentlemen, and I apologize for the delay in responding. Life got in the way for a few days there.
Think I'll get with the Texas outfit and see what they think. |

I'm in the same boat as you with a PARS RML, not much left to thread with. Were you able to get any help from Class3 or elsewhere?. |

Wondering if there was any success in finding an alternative? Thers's a MISR SA with OD of 0.481" and first/only smith went to so far said no. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
| I gave up on the idea of threading mine. I am going to see if I can get some round bar stock and thread it to, 14x1 LH, bore the center to the OD of the barrel and use high temp silver solder to mount it. |

| If it were me, I'd thread the barrel an appropriate pitch for the existing diameter and then would made an adapter with the internal thread matching the barrel and the external being 14-1lh. Hell, you wouldn't even need to thread the barrel and simply make the adapter and braze it on to the muzzle. |

| At one time they made flash hiders that slipped on to pin for those who had turned down no threaded barrels. I’m wondering if A place I know would make them? Or maybe my cousin? Mines threaded so just got to get one for mine. But someone maybe making them out there as I know they was offed in couple sizes for several different aks years ago. Just can’t remember who had them if it was kvar or thinking maybe the other well known ak parts place. Name slips me right now have to find it, lol. |
