.965×32tpi tuner threads

[mike mccormick]

I bought a used 30br barrel from a member a while back, and the tuner threads measure .965×32 tpi. Whose tuners use this thread?

Probably the one that’s been sitting on my desk for three years,

That's quite the paperweight

I bought it thinking I’d have a barrel cut for it and never did, so it sits.
I just went to look for it and couldn’t find it. I think it’s in a drawer in my Texas shop. Other wise, I’d offer it to you. Sorry!
The threads sound right.

If you ever get the chance to check it out, shoot me a pm

I think those are Ezell threads

Nope. Ezell’s old thread is .900-32. I have one.

We have a girl watching our house. She’s a retired school teacher and not very mechanical. I’ll see if I can send her on a treasure hunt! Maybe we’ll get lucky.
Here’s what I have:

My old tuner that the rights now belong to Grizzly.
I'm sure the threads are .900x32.

What are you measuring to come up with .965"? Sounds like someone made the tuner fit the barrel or made the barrel fit the tuner...

Measuring the threads themselves, it ain't rocket science

If it is one of mine somebody bored the old threads out and rethreaded it.

 

[mike mccormick]

It appears that Bukys used this thread size. Don't know if anyone else does

How about a picture?

It's possible, but I don't think I've ever seen a Bukys or any other make for that matter, of this size.

 

[mike mccormick]

15/16 would be .937" , not sure why .965 was chosen

 

[Walt Krafft]

Could be somebody gauled the threads in the tuner and rethreaded it to save it.

Didn't consider that Walt. Makes sense

 

[Uthink Uknow]

And still no picture so I guess it didn’t happen.

Just curious, what is the contour of that 30br barrel. If it's what I think it is, the thread pattern may be custom sized. Wonder if the tuner was made custom for that barrel.
