I guess its a secret because searching gave me nothing.

Whats the diameter of the compact model, at the muzzle?  (Want to see if fitting a 5/8-24 flash hider would work for the compact)

The standard model is .575 and the pred is .665 FYI

I have 3 standard size and 3 compacts.  It looks like they were shooting for 0.60 on the standards, and 0.65 on the compacts, and there is quite a bit of variation.
3 Standards 0.602/0.603/0.598 inch.  
3 Compacts 0.653/0.642/0.645 inch.

Thank you sir-

Let me ask you, I was measuring off a .243 barrel- are one of your compacts in .243? (I am looking to thread for a 5/8-24 flash hider)

Obviously you like your americans?

Actually, I made a mistake.  For some reason, I thought you were talking about the rimfire models.

The only RA I have is a 308 compact.  It measures 0.585.

Oh yeah.  It is because you put RAR in the title.  Ruger American Rimfire.  Threw me for a loop.
