Is the pencil barrel of my REM Mod 7-08 to small to be safely threaded?

If the diameter is greater than .625 it should be doable. -
You may have to go 16” or close and thread it 1/2x28 then run an adapter to get to 5/8x24.Comment

With standard threading, your barrel diameter needs to be .100” over major thread diameter for a proper shoulder. (.725” for 5/8”-24 or .600” for 1/2”-28)
If your barrel doesn’t meet these specs, you still have options. Depending on the barrel contour, it can sometimes be cut down to where it has enough diameter. Your other options are having an added shoulder or permanent thread adapter installed that will provide an adequate shoulder. We do a lot of these on thin profile barrels that don’t support regular thread jobs.
You can look on our website for examples. www.diamondcprecision.com
I’m happy to talk you through your options if you want to give me a call. (Even if you plan to take it elsewhere)
