I had a little free time today and got around to fixing the barrel. I went with the threaded sleeve which allowed me to clock the threads and align the sights with vertical. It tightened down to 200 ft-lbs and looks like it came strait from the factory...win in my book.

Since it was a loose sleeve I was able to clock the threads and align the sights with vertical. It tightened down to 200 ft-lbs and looks like it came strait from the factory...win in my book.
