Can you elaborate on this? I'd do it in a hearbeat if I knew it wouldn't ruin the barrel. And you can take the gas lock off and screw it onto another Norinco M14 with no problems?
Personally, I wouldn't try this.............
Doing this with a SEI DC Vortex Flash Suppressor onto a Norc barrel is a little different as you are not taking the Flash Suppressor off on a regular basis.
The Gas system has to be taken apart and cleaned on a regular basis.Mis-Matched threads would compromise the thread integrity............I would not want to be loosening & tightening two different threads as they will wear out and strip.......then you are FUBAR............
Just my $0.02........
