Received a Norinco MAK90 body from may late father-in-law. Gun was missing all furniture, some operating parts and had a blank milled barrel and that measured 0.509 major diameter. This product worked great for my son and I to cut the barrel with 1/2× 28 threads for a muzzle device. Since then we have purchase all the missing 922r parts to finish rebuilding the rifle.
