Henglong recoil unit thread?

Post by DzNile4L »

Hey guys, after a fruitless search at the local bolt shop we couldn’t find a thread that suits the henglong recoil unit (where the barrel screws into). Does anyone know what type of thread it is?

Cheers, Stay flattening the curve, or is it 2 weeks to slow the safe :crazy:

you are probably talking about the two screws that fix the recoil mechanism on the side, and on the mantelé? inwards?
