One thing that worries me a bit is that the barrel can't be hand tightened to the 1/8 turn described as "just right" in the tutorial.

You could lap it in...I've used Rubbing Compound, or Polishing Compound (one is coarser than the other) to lap a barrel in that was 'almost' right...Clean dry threads, put the compound on, tighten & loosen a couple times, take it apart, clean it, put a dab of grease on the threads, and see how close it comes then...repeat as needed...
But that's just my way...there's lots of ways...even some right ways...
