Product Description
So you bought an SKS and found that the muzzle is not threaded. Bummer
We've got a solution for you, Pop this bad boy in the muzzle. It will help you to simply run a 9/16-18 die on the muzzle end of the barrel to cut some threads in a DIY fashion.
The SKS barrel outside diameter is typically around 0.550" damn near perfect for cutting 9/16-18 threads. Might not be a perfect solution but you could use a 9/16-18 to 5/8-24 thread adapter on there to get the thread pitch you want without any expensive gunsmithing services, shipping and such.
Use some good threading oil or grease to help the die along.
There is a video in the video section of this page to help guide you through the process
This tool is used to help with the alignment of SKS muzzle threading. It has the thread on the outside to align a m14x1L or 9/16-18 die onto the muzzle while being aligned with the bore.
Essentially the situation is you want to put some muzzle threads on your SKS in a diy type situation.
You can usually run a M14x1 or 9/16-18 die directly on the muzzle of the barrel in front of the front sight/ bayonet block.
The 9/16-18 option is typically easier to do than the M14
These cheap tools will make sure you have a precise alignment while making those threads.
