G&g arp 556 aep replacement barrel

[Interloper393]

Hi guys can anyone tell me where I can buy a new barrel for this gun, the threads have stripped on the end when removing the amplifier, it would retap but no one has the reverse thread die I need to do it

any help would be great or even an uprated one would do as long as I can fit my tracer to it.

cheers

 You could file the threads flush and epoxy a thread adapter on the end for a cheap fix?

I need to fit a tracer buddy and the one I have you need to remove it to turn it on lol

Got you now lol.. Yeah that would work.. need to be spot on tho else it will trow the bbs off

Your google-fu is weak https://www.rdgtools.co.uk/acatalog/LEFT_HAND_METRIC_TAPS_AND_DIES.html they have 14mm CCW dies in 2/1.5/1mm pitches. One of those should be the kiddie.

Any idear on what the thread size I would need? The acetech lighter tracer seems to thread ok with the few that's left

Yarp.

I am of course assuming you have a suitable die stock for this...
