Thanks Liam once again ,
Would you say these look like a smart part thread

Smart parts have 2 threads

Sft shocker and nxt/ion/luxe

They look like they could be Angel led/LCD/g7 thread due to the length of their shanks

hmm my best guess would be closer to the spyder threads on the chart, just because the smart parts one looks like its slope (probably the wrong term) is very steep with only 3 full turns on it. the spyder one is seems a bit closer because its flatter and has more turns like the ones you've got.

easiest thing is if you know anybody with these type of guns kicking about just try gently screwing them in, don't force it in case its wrong you might cross thread it.

Spyder does look about right

I have has a similar issue with some barrels... personally what i would like is if there was a guide that told you that pitch and bore the threads are, that was it would be a lot easier to match up barrels and barrel kits to older and rare markers
