well had to contact i.o. going to send it in to get warrenty work done the threades on the barrell are stripped prom whoever asembeld it sorry for the spelling. hopefully they will repair it but if not anybody know if i can rethread it or get a new barrell
new barrel's no problem, rethreading you'd probably have to turn it down and go 1/2x28. i'd be willing to bet they just replace the rifle for you.

But i guess worse case scenario they just send my rifle back and say theres nothing there gonna do for me then i guess i would have to take it to a shope the 1/2x28 which is the ar threadding correct or find a new chrome lined polish ak barrel

Cross-threading would definitely be easier and cheaper unless you were committed to a LH AK brake. As Ferret said, rebarreling is not brain surgery but it's more expensive (parts plus labor).
Let us know what IO offers to do. If the threads weren't completely buggered they may just chase them and send it back.

any standard AKM barrel will work. polish, romanian, US-made, etc.
of the choices, i'd go at least romanian but if you can't find one for a reasonable price, us-made will getcha where you want to be.

Are you sure it's stripped? Sometimes AK parts can be tight, especially wooden handguards. Also when moving the front sight it is possible to break the sight adjustment tool before the sight moves, DOH!
Make sure you're compressing the plunger enough so it's not hitting your brake. Also why not wrap a rag around the brake while torquing w/ a pair of channel locks? And if you're looking to take it off and swap for a different brake then don't even bother with the rag since it won't matter if it gets scratched.
