a must for quality gunsmithing

I thread barrels for suppressors and this product is a must for quality workmanship. I've been using the same tap now in over 50 applications and is still going strong with not a single flaw. I can't say not one thing bad about this tap. For all you gunsmiths that thread barrels, you cannot go wrong!

It works, but isn't a true bottom tap

I use this tap to make thread protector caps for threaded barrels and it works, but I have to make the cap longer due to the tapered part of the tap. Not a huge problem, but I was expecting a true bottom tap. Bottom line; yes I would recommend it for its quality, but know that it is NOT a bottom tap.
