You also need to be sure that you will have enough metal left to thread the barrel. Meaning the distance between the two opposite flutes at there lowest point.

Got any pictures on how it would look? I would buy a non fluted barrel but i dont have the $1500 to spend on a barrel at this time. </div></div>
It would look exactly like this, non-threaded. There is a gun on here in the For Sale section that is fluted, cut, threaded, and used part of the cut off part for a barrel nut.
