Hakim Muzzle Cap Thread

[volkov956]

Does anyone know the Thread size and pitch for the Hakim Muzzle Cap? I dont have the proper size die tap set atm so I am looking to order a pair for it but I currently dont have any local places that have it in stock either for reference.

So am going to order but don't know the size or thread seems to be around 17.5mm ish thats about all I know

Thanks

A good place to start would be to use a thread pitch gauge and see if it's either metric or sae or if its some proprietary thread. Usually the cheap cdn tire tap and dies sets have pitch gauges or any machine tooling supply store usually has a budget brand like sowa that can be had for 30 or so dollars.

yea i am looking into sourcing a kit currently just the size of the muzzle cap is larger then what most kits have. My muzzle cap is bent for some odd reason so bullets will impact it and it really causes problems with accuracy of course just taking it off the rifle shoots fine but I am looking to get one made since buying one seems to be non existant in canada.
