[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2417719, member: 68758"] "Tight" threads can be detrimental if either (or both) internal or external threads are not perfectly concentric. The threads do not align the parts- the receiver face and barrel shoulder ensure perfect alignment. If you have "tight" threads and the receiver internal threads are not perfectly concentric it's conceivable the shoulders will not be able to correct the misalignment. Like Shortgrass said, it should be a smooth, easy to turn by hand fitment- with very little play. Anyway, since that wasn't really your question :) The answer is yes- you should be able to use a nutted prefit assuming the smith didn't mess with the internal receiver threads. [/QUOTE]
