Airforce Talon SS - leaking valve - need info on rebuild

[Berserkeley Mike]

Anyon know the type of foster QD Niple used on a .457 talon ss ?
npt? Bsp? Or ?

Huh? Does not compute... Talon or Texan?

How did you get a .457 barrel in the Talon frame?

Dunno… it came that way

That looks like a bog standard .22 or .25 talon. The end cap is 1/2-20 and is about .35 ID a .457 can't go through that hole.

Thanks… it’s not my gun so Texan or talon doesn’t compute for me either
but it’s most definitely.457

trying to find the male QD foster fitting threaded piece for it thus the need for information about threading type. as this appears tapered I’m guessing NPT Vice BSP.

This is the one removed
thank you for responding

If it is AirForce it is not BSP. My only guns with SAE thread screws. All the rest are metric or some BSP.

That is definitely a taper so that really only leaves 1/8 NPT.

Thanks as that’s what I thought but I got the wiggles before ordering
