    Default Threading AK barrel

    Anyone know where I can go to get my zpap 85 rethreaded to 1/2x28? It's 26mm currently.
    I'd rather have it rethread as I would like to run a suppressor rather than using an adapter. Thanks

    Well. if you want to run a HALO.
    I have the correct, Gemtec, adapter for that unit, ran it on my SLR 106F for a few.

    I plan running an AAC can, I should've clarify. They have adapters from 26mm to 1/2x28 but not sure if that's recommended?

    IF it's a factory adapter then yes. HOWEVER . You really ne to check concentricity of the bore, using one of those suppressor gauges . Not sure where i purchased mine, but they were not as pricey as the SF units.

    I don't think Zastava has a factory option for an adapter. It would be nice to skip the adapter and get it re-thread, i'm not really desperate to shoot it suppressed, just seeing if i can find someone local to get it done.

    It's not from Zastava, my bad. It's from what ever suppressor mfg, you have a suppressor for. Like i said, if it was a Gemtech halo, i have the adapter and spacer. Based on those and other AK's with com bloc barrels, i'd run a 30 cal can.

    For sure, I know what you mean. AAC is now gone, they never have such adapters either. The adapter I was referring to was 26mm to 1/2x28, then I would install an AAC 51t muzzle device to make the can fit. Like below, not exact but similar.

    Halcyon Defense did my last AK's cut and rethread and I am very happy with the results.

    Thank you, I am hoping to see if there's anyone local that can do this.
