Anyone use a Barloc on a criterion Remage?

[Winny94]

I would like to run a barloc on a criterion Remage barrel, but was told there have been issues with not having enough barrel thread to engage the arc barrel nut.
It will go on a defiance and I'm debating if I use the defiance lug (thicker and pinned) or the arc lug (thinner and not pinned).

Any first hand experiences shared would be appreciated.

I had one CBI that was a cunt hair too short to head space with the Barloc and another was that was good to go.

It all depends on your lug thickness. The other thing you can do is get a die with the same thread pitch as the barrel shank and cut a couple extra threads yourself. Easy fix...especially if you wish to run a thicker lug.
