9mm barrels are typically threaded at 1/2 - 36 because of the risk of having someone who isn't paying attention installing a .223 flash hider and generating a spectacular failure. There are 9mm flash hiders out there threaded at 1/2 - 36 in a number of patterns. I got mine from Spikes (along with the barrel). Having a stock FH bored out for 9mm is a crap shoot in my opinion. Get a part that was made for that caliber from the start and avoid the hassles.

Hey guys, what is the standard threading on a 9mm AR barrel these days? I'm having my 9mm cut down and was thinking of just getting it threaded 1/2x28 and just making sure I have a FS with enough clearance for the round. Is that feasible or not? Thanks in advance... That will work just fine. Lots of people running 1/2x28 on 9mm's. |

I prefer 5/8 x 24....lots of .308 stuff will work with out opening it up.....and very little has to come out if you do have to open one up

I prefer 1/2-28 for running suppressors.

My 8" is threaded 1/2 x 28. I bored out a Rainier Arms mini comp with no issues and it functions and looks fantastic.
