Threading a post ban Colt match target hbar

[zteknik]

Now since my escape from New York I've been de banning some of my rifles.
I have a post ban match target hbar and was wondering on how easy it would be to thread the muzzle for a brake? I'd hate to swap out the barrel due to it having low round count-aprox 600 rds(remember I lived in New York [Tooth])
Would it be easy enough for me to do or should I just take it to Bert?

Unless you're a machinist and know how to use a lathe, I would take it to Bert.

Yup I kinda was leaning that way.I dont have a lathe :(
I figured the barrel might have been able to thread by hand but it looks a bit too much for the die.

Well i have your mags, here, might as well drive up and use the lathe. Your spouse need to run any wire while you're here?

Your chances of the threads being mis-aligned with a die are great plus the diameter needs to be turned down.
Come see me, we need to meet anyways[Beer]

Thats great!!Oh I think she'll just like to get a chance to practice,if anything she'll run the lathe better than me :D
I'll probably drop off the upper to ya to unscrew the barrel.

I'm thinking of going from fixed handle upper to a flat top since I'm gonna thread the barrel anyways. .
