I'm still pretty new to the suppressor world, so forgive me for what's probably a stupid question, but...

I'm thinking about suppressing a 10-22 and was wondering if the barrel has to be cut down to be able to thread it, ie cut out the crown?  The reason I ask, is that I don't really want to have to get the extra SBR stamp, so if I start with a 16" barrel and it has to be cut down, that would put me in SBR lengths?

Thanks for any advice guys.

For what it costs to thread the stock barrel you would be better off getting a Green Mountain threaded barrel.

To answer the question...no.

10/22 barrels are 18".

So they just thread right through the existing crown?

On a slight tangent, are all supressors threaded the same?  In my surfing, I haven't read about different threads, so I'm guessing there is an industry standard that everyone uses?

I'll do some checking and may end up going this route.  Don't have a donor rifle yet, so still just gathering info and trying to figure out how I'm going to approach this.

Suppressors come in multiple thread sizes. Metric and Standard.

To the best of my knowledge, ALL rimfire suppressors available in the US come threaded 1/2x28. Once you go to centerfire cans, there are quite a few different thread options.
