Lima02 Posted Tuesday at 15:09 Share Posted Tuesday at 15:09 Hey there I'm posting this thread to see how many people would be interested in AK to NATO thread adapters. Either 24 or 22 down to 14ccw for NATO muzzle devices. I've got access to a lathe and need one myself as one of the AK muzzle brakes I ordered is in 14ccw so disappointingly doesn't fit my AK. Had a quick google search and most results either came up out of stock or overpriced for what they are. It's completely possible I'm searching in the wrong place but regardless, is this something any of you lot are interested in? -Small note to mods, not selling as of yet but if this takes off I will take this to the classifieds : ) Maybe you're in the same situation as me or you think you'd like the look of your Russian RIF with that NATO can (looking cool is 90% of this hobby) or you feel like doing something just outright cursed to your AK. The other way is also an option, 14ccw up to 24/22. Just here to gauge interest at the moment so no promises. Thank you for any feedback you guys can give me. Hell, even some pointers on some that are in stock. If so, I'm UK based. I'm aware of the Ares Amoeba adapters (22 to 14) but I feel like if they did fit AK muzzles, they'd be marketed as being useful for that aswell(?) if you catch my drift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndication Posted Tuesday at 15:50 Share Posted Tuesday at 15:50 It'll be tricky to make an adapter from a larger diameter to a smaller one that's relatively discreet tbh. At that point you're probably better off just getting one in the correct size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's do-able. It's completely doable IMO, there's examples of them but not readily available from the quick research I've done. Just wondering if it would be popular enough to market. https://ant-supplies.uk/barrel-muzzle-adapters/ak-threaded-muzzle-adapters.html ^^^ example above 4 hours ago, Anonymoose said: I can relate to that. hot Edited Tuesday at 21:37 by Lima02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 24mm CW thread on the Cyma AKSU is just a ring that threads onto the barrel's actual 14mm ccw thread. Here's mine with different muzzle devices, all 14mm ccw Although I see you have an LCT, in that case I don't think yours can accept 14mm ccw stuff natively...

Who's got the LCT? Yeah it's easier to make a 24mm adapter that fits on top of a 14mm thread than the other way around. It sounded like OP was suggesting the other way around.

Skara Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago It was referred to the OP, who happens to have "lct ak105" written on his profile.. He could also source another barrel and have the m14 ccw thread cut on the existing 24mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lima02 Posted 16 hours ago Author Share Posted 16 hours ago @Skara could source a new barrel, hadn't considered that and that could be fun to mess about with. Currently very jealous of your AKSU with both options available to you. Nice build btw. @Lyndication had it right, I'm suggesting a 24 necked down to 14. To me, this seems easy but I'm new to the whole metal working area. Certainly seems easier and more convenient than swapping barrels between which muzzle device I want to use. How come you're saying it'll be a harder job? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndication Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago Job itself will be a piece of cake. It'll just inevitably result in an odd looking collar on the muzzle, which may put off those more autistic about toy gun realism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
