Before you go that route because you will have to only use that feed neck because your new threads will larger than the old threads. Try using some lock-tite on the threads and putting the neck back in. If that doesn't work let me know because I will keep thinking of a solution for you.

i think what they do is they make new threads biggers than you original one and then they give you an adapter that goes in the body of the gun and then your feedneck will go on that, this is only based on what i have heard as i have never had any experience with this sorry i cant help u any further

That makes sence it would be like a helicoil in an engine head. That would work but, not a very elegant solution to fixing such an elegant gun.
