you can see the picture the male its going in the chamber and the barrel in the female part of it. i am just going to screw it right in the chamber (said it because i have seen that there is usaly a nipple between chamber and union on the hybrids on the forum) and the question`s are:
do my union get right or wrong way then (if there is a way it use to stand) and if it is wrong way would the disk just been blown out?

my question is when i set the male threads i the chamber is it then "up side down" so would the union be the right way or wil it point with the wrong side towards the cahamber and wrong side towards the muzzle?

Do you mean is the union the right way round?

Some people have put them on backwards but have managed to mod them to make them work.

I'm not exactly sure, you can always just turn it around and change the threads from the barrel and chamber to match.

This hybrid here has a union on backwards, so compare yours to that:
