Who can thread and install an AK muzzle brake for me?

You may have a problem threading the Norinco barrel. They used standard threaded barrels and then lathe cut the threads off reducing the diameter of the threaded area. You would probably have to add a sleeve of some sort to make it work, could get pricey...
Yes I noticed the reduced diameter and have been holding off asking the questions because I didnt really want to know the answer but I will call remsport and see what john can do for me.
Most Mak 90s and Some Romanian barrels were turned down to remove threads but there is a custom sized adapter I've seen for sale on a few sites that allows you to use a standard AK muzzle brake once you thread using the specific die. The size might end up being 24mm like the 74 style brakes.
Those rifles were typical 14-1 before they were turned down so you'll need the adapter unless you just have a brake welded in place.

Pullman Arms in Worcester, they do fantastic work.
Thanks for the info. John called me and said he doesn't work on AK variants.
I think I'll be taking my AR to him though later on so it was still a good call to make. Thanks again.

Thanks I'll call them for pricing and timeframe to do the work..
Last week I dropped off the MAK90 to 1776-Gunsmithing in Wapole to get the work done. Should have it back pretty soon. Seemed like good people. Probably be sending some more work their way too.
