barrel threads?

[lrpv-shooter]

Just received two barrels from a company that I have never had problems with and I don't think it's the barrel I think it's the action. The take off barrel looks like the threads had been sanded down? Any ideas...

Are we talking about the new barrels or your old barrel? It's unclear what the problem is. a factory barrel with the tops of the threads flattened isn't unusual.

and a new barrel with sharp threads could be a problem.

Correct. The old barrel has the tops of the threads knocked down and the new barrel has sharp threads and I can't get it to screw into the action at all. Its a small shank receiver and a small shank barrel. Should I try and knock down the threads on the new barrel?

[Blue Avenger]

That is what the manufacture will probably tell you.

Yep I have had to sand down the threads on one. It has been discussed on the forum before.

Thanks y'all. I chased out the action threads and got the barrel to screw on, tight but it's on and looks great
