The threads are really close. Basically you end up filing off a bit to alot of paint, and making the threads less rigid in dimension from SAE to metric. They end up being a mixture of both, and you can use either type of rail on the receiver.

Here's a PTW receiver done this way. You can see how much material was actually removed (very little), and the file used to do the job. Took about 20 minutes.
