[Flyboy73]

Precise Innovations LLC list a TAT for 5.45. However the web site lists it as being backorded. May give them a call and see how long before they have in stock.

A few places that have threading equipment and muzzle brakes:
www.dpharms.com
www.midwestarmory.com
www.globaltrades.com

I greatly prefer the 14x1 threads--seems to me there's a wider range of options,

I allready have a muzzle brake. Got one from Tapco. Brownells have the tap i need. Just need to get my C&R over to them so i can get my discount.

Having problems though finding a thread allingment tool for 5.45 cal. though.

I checked the places mentioned above and none had a 5.45 TAT.

I Have a 5.45 and 7.62 TAT on order along with the 14x1 lh die.

Plan on threading on my WASR 10 too.


After i get done with my threading anyone want to buy or rent the TAT's and die?

I probally won't use them again.

Why not remove the old FSB and press on a new one with Romanian 22mm or European 24mm threads? Then you could use the original AK-74 muzzle device.

I don't really want to remove the FSB. Heard its a pain to get off.

I allready have the brake for the 14x1LH threads. The one i am putting on is us. I would think a orginal brake, might run into 922R compliance issues.

Getting it off isnt really hard. Getting it back on can be a pain... It is really dependent on the gun. Sometimes, a press is required, sometimes just a hammer. Either way, replacing the FSB is the more "authentic" route to go...and will likely result in a higher resale value for your gun. What is more, there are US manufactured AK-74 brakes in 24mm.
