Should I leave the barrel the factory length, or have ADCO cut it when they thread it. I wouldn't mind cutting it down to 16". I think the barrel is 20" now. Do I need more than 16" for a 22LR?
BTW...the barrel is pretty thin, so I am wondering if there will be enough shoulder for the suppressor.

Have the stock barrel cut/crowned/threaded by ADCO. If not check out Clark custom guns . com for a replacement barrel. If the barrel is threaded into the receiver you will need a gunsmith if bolted via Vblock you can do that yourself.

IMO and it's just that, My Opinion.
Keep that bbl, cut to 18" thread & recrown. You want to go 16" by all means do so, BUT KEEP THAT BBL.You will have more than enough for a shoulder once threaded, especially if you go 16".
I have one from mid 80's, we removed the front sight then threaded bbl back 1/2 way in to the front sight block. This gave a nice shoulder for a suppressor. Did some trigger work, kept the redfield scope it came with . Nice shooter. Regarding the trigger work the stock or buy a Kidd or other mfg's unit. YMMV
Regarding an atlas bipod. There are a few mfg who make an adapter for wood stocks.
