Sorry, Barrel Threads (for barrel accessories such as your lovely flash hider).

Considering a.... project.

Depends on what barrel you have...original or US made. metric 15x1 if it's original, 9/16??? for US.

Since its a Century, guessing its a metric. Not 100%.

Like rampager says. I've been told the US made go both ways.

Probably is metric, but you can't always count on it. I have a Century Limited Edition that has a US made barrel. I'm not sure how many Century Cetmes had US barrels. Either way, as you probably know you need to watch your parts count. You might want to look into SSwee's FH's as they are US made.

Already have one. Not worried about parts count atm on this build, I think its way over required ^^.

This is a thing that im looking into. Porting between a few things.

Not only are their US made barrels, Century also cut barrels and rethreaded them. From reading your post, you have a parts kit...which has the standard 15x1 metric.

As far as the parts count goes....your a big boy do your own thing. Just be advised its against the law to assemble a semi auto Cetme with more then 10 imported parts.

By way over, I mean getting closer all the time to 100% US made guys. Me No Wanty ATF funtime. So not worth it, or nessecary.

on the non correct US made barrel it is 9/16 SOMETHING - not sure on TPI at this moment cause i dont have one, all i remember is its 9/16 for sure.
