My barrel on my VEPR is not threaded and was wondering what is the exact thread that I need to install this PWS FSC47 compensator. Any help would be awesome, Thanks!

Quoted:
14x1 left hand thread


Is that what the dye will actually say on it as Ive never used a tip & die set before. Sorry for the noob question....

You should measure the OD of your barrel at the muzzle before ordering anything.



The OD of your barrel needs to be a certain size to use certain dies.

Your OD is prob. about .610", that's what mine where. the FSC47 does use M14x1 LH threads, and yes, that is what the die would say. You need an OD between 0.551" to 0.571" to thread it M14x1 LH, so you would need to turn down the end of the barrel. www.dinzagarms.com has great service and has/makes turndown and treading tools, in addition the site has great info, I.E.: specifies what OD range certain thread sizes will work with. I have several of his tools and they have all worked flawlessly.

P.S. make sure you use a TAT!
