So I'm building a 9mm AR and need to attach perm attach the muzzle brake because of our our wonderful AWB.
I was just planning on pin/weld like my other ARs till I took a look at the threaded portion of the barrel. It's thin as hell. Like .075 including the threads.
The threads are 1/2 x 36.
I really don't think that pin/welding it is a good idea with the minimal amount of material there.
Anyonee else run into this problem? I know there is silver solder as a option but how does that effect the barrel since the material is so thin in that area? I really don't want to have to pay someone to weld all the way around the brake either.
Thoughts?
