I am sure you can. I would think you cut the thread from the taigen barrel. Check the hole size and ready to go. Check the the manual above.

Barrel cut by almost 1.5cm and the muzzle brake completed and test fitted. Night and day compared to the old thing. And now Co fined me to change these on the other 2 Panthers as well. Next will be Mr surface treatment.Image

Now with Mr surface and Dunkelgelb. The texture turned out nice. Color match not so much though. Guess that will be less of a problem with filters put on.ImageImage

Nice work , sometimes its the little improvements that can make a model stand out. Well worth the price of a 1/35 model.

Just get this goody, it should be easy to make it work on a Taigen barrel as well.
