If it is locktited on, heat it up the locktite will loosen up.

Yea i haven't had any luck yet, and i wouldn't know how to set it up in a lathe because the barrel is connected to some stuff that would make it offset in my lathe

[Diskea]

but i was thinking i could sand it down and thread it when I reach tolerance

If you put it in a lathe you would have to get a collet or make collet to hold it
