The same way a commercial design does it.
Are you making and/or designing it yourself, or just curios? |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By chargerdude70: booster housing I guess this is where I am getting confused. Is this a separate part you can buy? I don't see it on Rugged's website. |

Who ever your suppressor maker is should have one. But, it’s the internal thread pitch of it that matters. The trilug mount needs to thread into it. I’m not sure if rugged trilug mount TP is proprietary or not? |

You want this.
Use it with an “Omega threaded” tube. |

OP, do you see why I asked if you were making one or just curious?

Quote HistorySo the Rugged 3 lug mount screws into this cage which then threads into the tube? |

Some designs, like Rugged and Griffin, use the booster piston housing included with the suppressor. Other designs like Dead Air and Silencerco, use self contained 3-lug adapter where the entire adapter is a pre-assembled unit and is simply screwed into the rear of the suppressor. The housing is part of the unit and the spring and internal collar are retained In the housing either by a nut or a snap ring.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By eric10mm: In newer can designs, such as the Rugged Obsidian, there is a collar which stops the spring and such from just going further in, and on the front side locate the baffles. Older cans, like the SWR Trident9, use a complete captured booster and 3-lug assy. Trident9 above Obsidian45 below https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/70736/boosters-1405745.jpg The Obsidian booster piston housing is built into the rear of the can. That’s why it isn’t a separate part that you can buy, and that’s why all you need is the caring, collar, and three lug adapter. |

Liberty, Gemtech and SDTA 3 lugs are all self contained, threaded 1-3/16 24 TPI. Those 3 makers also have stand alone booster housings so threaded.

Doesn’t matter how it works on a MG7. I was clearly talking about an Obsidian, and I have an Obsidian 45, so I know for sure how it works. |
