Just starting to investigate a suppressor for deer hunting. First question is- Do suppressors have industry standard threads. For example can I start by having a rifle threaded now? Thanks, Keith What counts is what you learn after you know it all!!! | ||

If you are considering "direct thread" suppressors, .30 caliber cans are usually 5/8-24, but not always and .338 cans are often 3/4-24, but not always. Pick your can first, then thread the barrels accordingly. I prefer direct thread cans for easy barrel swaps without costly proprietary adapters I learned my lesson the expensive way). | |||

Tapered threads don't come loose, should only be tapered the last 3 o4 threads being real snug and they tighten as you shoot to one degree or another, but usually require a screw driver or tool to tap them off..I havn't found that a problem if your prepared for it. I carry such a cut off screw driver in my cartridge belt.. Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||
