Threading oversized barrel. Tap & Die, Annular Cutter. Flash hiders ONLY. Type 81 VZ58. Read below
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Note: this is best suited for A1 and A2 birdcage and others with large exit holes flash hiders rather than muzzle brakes which typically has smaller exit holes. The larger exit holes would not impede the bullet should the threading isn't absolutely straight so check prior to use.
For M14 thread. Annular Cutter Kit is 0.545.
This is not for novices so if you're unsure of your ability to do the modification then best to take it to a qualified gunsmith.
When using the Annular Cutter apply pressure evenly so best not hold by the handle, just press the button with one hand and apply pressure to the top (vertical to the cutter) with the other.

First off I'd like to say awesome job with the barrel work. For future reference on the tapping, you can go more then 3 degrees between back offs, a quarter turn or more will usually be fine and you can tell by watching the metal curl in the die as you cut it. Also, it looked like a tapered die, so after you get your length with taper threading first, I've gone back afterwards and threaded the die on backwards with taper end up, that'll clean up all the thread for full length. Overall looks awesome!!!
thanks for the tip but the reason why i backed of early was bcos i felt resistance and also i felt the cheap die might snap, lol.
Good job, I threaded my Remington 770 308 many years ago. Not perfectly done, but worked. I will try again my newly built Remington 700 6.5 CM after I watch this video, thank you
Good luck!
What a great video. So useful. Thanks for posting this!
Very satisfying to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for posting this video. Exactly want i needed
Glad it was helpful!
Please do a video of you moving the type 81 lmg front sight backward
i dont think many would be interested in that. wouldnt you just buy a rifle instead?
the die starts off with the taper side in the stock pointing down , then swap it half way to ge a cleaner end to the thread ,, this may be ok for a brake ,,, dont think I would do a moderator this way though...
Nice vedio don't know if you did it or not , but when you do something this take some foam ear plugs and shove in the barrel to keep metal shavings out of the breech area the rfeling . Poke out plugs from the breech end . But putting a break on my mosin .
great idea but i plan to run a rod thru it.
Hello, I have a request. How can I buy these things for an SKS rifle to make this? I know the first one is 14x1, but I need the second one from abroad. How do I grind the barrel?
Excellent job my friend keep up the good work
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the intel. What is the purpose of the jam nut? I have a M14x1 LH AK whose threads go right up to the front sight post. Does jam nut help support concentricity with the barrel by provide a 360 degree shoulder?
To ensure proper timing of your muzzle devices, you need either a jam nut or a locking pin to hold it in place except for A1 birdcage which does not need to be timed.
Question, does the pilot rod for the cutter spins inside the barrel?
no.
Very good job. Where can I see the thread table you showed? Thanks!
Info from CNC warrior website.
Thanks. I can't find exactly where the table is on the site.
@@-Shekerlijski just google cnc warrior muzzle threading
Many thanks again!!!
Hi, so the pilot dosen't rotate in the barrel? Interesting as i thought it would and damage the rifling. Pretty neat
If you follow my instruction , it shouldnt spin.
Some say that solid dies shouldn’t be used for cutting threads and a split/adjustable die should be used. I see your die is solid. Are the solid dies sufficient in your opinion?
use what ever are available to you. ofcos i'd demo the harder of the two.
@@gnutzguy as we know, the split dies are extremely higher priced but I can see I can get away using a solid. Much appreciated
@@stevenmack9810 yup, that too. cheaper and readily available on AliExpress. I think it cost me less than us$5.
Real nicely done video. Good job threading.
Thank you very much!
Wrap the barrel with masking tape at your 3/4 " stop as a guide.
Excuse me, what size Annular Cutter are you using?
one for M14 thread= 0.545 Annular Cutter Kit
"slop" in guide rod to bore, guide rod to cutter, and tolerance of cutter itself are all additive. Add that to tolerance of bore guide for die and die itself means you have A LOT of additive tolerances that could all add up to bite you in the ass. Also, buying cheapest possible tooling from Amazon probably doesn't help either. The longer the device from the muzzle the more likely a bullet strike because you CANNOT get dead nuts concentric with bore axis using this method.
Not sure if the guides were rotating or not, no potential damage on barrel inside?
it does rotate in the annular cutter but not in the die. i see no damage thru flash light.
No...guide spins independently
Thanks for the incredibly informative video.
I threaded my barrel and mounted a muzzle brake much like yours, however, it walks itself loose as I shoot. Any suggestions?
wonderful to hear. use a crush washer between the nut and the flash hider.
What do you think about buying m15x1 muzzle break for 308, and resizing it for m16x1 to fit the type 81 lmg? Shouldn’t really affect the structure of the muzzle break a lot
I'm already working on something. ☺️
I'm waiting for my annular cutter and die in the mail for my hi point 9mm carbine. From what I've heard high point's having notoriously difficult barrels to thread is this true?
Depends on the metal used and process used on your hi point.
Also i fckn love and i mean i fckin love splinter cell
Hello. what is the inner diameter off the annular cutter you used ?
.545
I did this myself but please inspect your tools properly. I ordered a thread die alignment/pilot tool and I didn't notice it was slightly bent until I tried to put the muzzle brake on. The threads are slightly crooked
DIY is not for brake, only hider. thats what i said in the description but its worth repeating ... thanks
Thanks for the info
No problem 👍
Hello, love the video, where did you get adapter for annular cutter , and pilot?
UA-cam won't let me tell you.
@@gnutzguy commie bastards
great video! is it possible to cut the barrel shorter?
cutting a barrel in canada is a gray area. best to get a gunsmith do it.
To add to this, the OD of the barrel at muzzle is .064
I have 5/8×24 flash hider. I wondering if it's can be used on Type 81? Or the only one which fit is M14×1?
Thanks
according to the chart at 1m 20sec. the t81 is too small.
Thanks for the video
You bet
Nice work. Do you think this is precise enough to install a suppressor without getting baffle strikes?
nope, only for flash hider.
Thank you@@gnutzguy
Everybody says using a annular cutter is no good for a suppressor but I think I'm going to try it I can't see how it can get out of alignment with the pilot
for my ar15
thread was 1/2x20 for my muzzle break, would i just get the 1/2 annular cutter?
1/2 x 28? not x20
@@gnutzguy your correct.
Understood
Hi there, I want to thread my type 81 barrel. Can you tell me the size of annular cutter you used? The o.d.?
sorry, i dont remember. all the info is in cnc warrior as stated in my vid. read each cutter and it will tell you which is the right one.
@@gnutzguy ok thanks
Nice job
Many thanks
I have a 300 WSM. I wish to try installing a break that I have. It is a Tikka break on a Tikka SS barrel How do I order the proper cutter and die
Tika says break will work on M14,M15 thread
For brakes, best to take it to a gunsmith. Diy is best for flash hiders.
Could annular cutter pilot damage barrel threading grooves? Thanks!
No sign of damage, just follow the instruction and don't tighten the pilot to the cutter. Lube the pilot too.
@@gnutzguy Thanks!!! So, it's not required to wrap the pilot with tape?
@@mordekhayyekutiel873 I don't think you can.
@@gnutzguy Thanks!!
Great job! Do you still have the set? Would you consider selling or renting it?
sorry, no selling or renting.... i might need it in the future.
What caliber pilot did you use for 7,62? Is it .308 ok?
The pilot tool you use must fit the die you are using, in my case it was a M14x1 RH then it will come with the appropriate caliber which is 7.62, not 308.
@@gnutzguy Sorry,I am total amateur,and I wanted pass cheaper,because my friend have 5/8-28 die,and .308 pilot.. I fought that will be ok for my SKS.. What die you recommend for muzzle brake and suppressor on SKS?
the regular sks (no idea with yugo m59) muzzle is 14.3 mm and 5/8" is too big . you need a die and annular cutter same as me. i would only recommend birdcage flash hiders unless you checked the straightness. if absolutely straight then you may use brakes.
You sure know how to treat a pipe
i do my best, lol.
There’s always time for lube.

Did you check if it affected accuracy?
No, i didnt check cos I didn't do this for accuracy but I've noticed no difference.
Where do i get the cutter ?
Thanks
i cant say bcos of youtube restriction.
@@gnutzguy ok. Can u tell what siz i need to buy to do 1/2 × 28 tpi ?
Thanks
Ok very good
Thanks
bruh how many T81 have u purchased, I count at least 4 based on all ur vids
See who's counting? Lol. I replaced a severely bent folder, it was returned to TI. I bought a fixed, I didn't like it as much as a folder so I sold it then I realized I can't do a Zhukov furniture with a folder so I bought another fixed. This UA-cam can be very expensive.
where did you get the bit to size the barrell before threading??
Cnc warrior website
Que medida es
measurement of what?
this was one of the sexiest things i have watched
Would this work for a muffler? Wink, wink 😜
no silly, a muffler pipe is a steel tube, dont need threading , lol.
@@gnutzguy clearly you are feeling suppressed LOL 😂
@@stevebratten6592 LMAO, did you hear the Canadian liberal government are banning all semi? I feeling suppressed and depressed too 😂
That's what I'm threading my hi point 9mm for.
Nice job. I just binge watched your videos on the type 81. I'm picking one up in a week from firearms outlet ont.
My wife would shoot me with one of her guns if I did that in the kitchen.
In the leg...
wow, you should get a medal for binge watching my vids. lol.
look on the bright side, shes not shooting both legs. lol.
@@gnutzguy I decided to buy a vz 58. I compared the two rifles side by side and hands down the vz won. Quality for about $350 more. With collapsing stock and already threaded barrel. Still waiting on new videos though.😀
Careful it will end up on the ban list like my shot gun
“These weapons were designed for one purpose, and one purpose only: To kill the largest number of people in the shortest amount of time,” Trudeau said at a press conference in Ottawa ... so Reid, which guns fits his statement, your shotgun or my SKS? I'm not gonna let him blind side me like he did to most of you guys with the shotgun. I know he is coming for my sks.
Gnutzguy they are coming for everything you have from 22 single shot to semi auto 50 cal we must band together join ccfrc nfa and we only stand a chance together united as firearms owners
Gnutzguy sign the petition pass it on
Take you rifle to a good gunsmith, have him do this on a lathe. Way more accurate and beter job.
no doubt but then whats the point of this vid?
If the threading alignment tool is to spec and fits snugly in the bore, and the die is of good quality, plenty of cutting oil is used, and some care is taken to complete the job, then the threads are nice and crisp and concentric to the bore. A smith isn’t going to be “way more accurate”. It’ll be a hair more accurate, and not enough to matter. More men need to learn how to do some things themselves instead of always paying another man to do everything for them. Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty and don’t be scared of failure. Upgrade your masculinity and learn some new skills.
It’s satisfying.
