Re: Howa and MarkX Barrel threads
Also, take note that the Howa are not only metric, they are
a 55 degree "V" pattern thread. I fainally bought one and took it apart Just to find out for certain. By the way, they really screw them in tight!

Appreciate the response

Sorry, they are not the same.

The Howa is Metric & Mauser common 1-12
