Barrel Threading
Hi All,
I am looking to have my CZ455 Varminter .22LR threaded to fit a USE UTRA (1/2" x 20 UNF). Can someone recommend a competent GS to do this work for me this week still.
Thanks
Gary

Never rush a gunsmith.

Re: Barrel Threading
Ok, gave Arms a call... 6 - 8 weeks - apparently they wait for enough firearms of the same caliber, and do them all one shot (no pun).
Never rush a gunsmith, I agree with, but two months?

Re: Barrel Threading
i never saw the "this week" request, thats very unrealistic.
6 - 8 weeks is what im used to for years already.

Re: Barrel Threading
You can also call Riaan at Moot Wapens in PTA. Very competent, good work and I don't think he's 6-8 weeks busy, but I may be wrong.

Re: Barrel Threading
Give Formalito a call. There is a guy there doing it for you in same day (Or let me say he did my 308 on same day I took it to him)

Re: Barrel Threading
Powder Keg who ordered my Ase Utra did 2 of my rifles in a week. Ask for Riaan and see if he can help.

Re: Barrel Threading
Only one - Danie Joubert in Pta. He does threading on rifles for Powder Keg iro the Ase Utra suppressors. Danie is not just a gunsmith - he is a master gunbuilder.
Danie does exact and precision threading - no slop.
For suppressor use you need the best threading job you can get imo.Last edited by DS; 22-04-2013 at 16:00.
