Hello all i just got my hands on my first halfcocker and im lovn it. It just has one small problem that I didnt know about. The barrel threading is messd up. I cant get the barrel to screw on all the was, it goes in about 2 threads than stops. I took it to the shop and they said that they had a tap to redrill it but they cant find it. Anyway any of you know anyone who does this? Thanx for the help KEN

I think the cocker tap is a fairly common airsmith item ... can you see what is jamming up the threads?

I have a knock off micro mag some guy made a few of but when they chromed it, it made the threads stick the same way. Just a to give ya a little more info on why it might be messed up in the first place. Same thing will happen with ano , nickel, and powder coat if you don't block off the opening or don't have the threads retapped when done. :twisted:

Tolerances on the Freak are tighter than the stock, it seems ...
