Thread pitch on barrel of 5PK

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Thread pitch on barrel of 5PK

Posted: 1/21/2009 6:37:09 PM EST

I've asked this before so sorry for repeating. I just picked up a 5PK and want to use my .22 can on it. The barrel is threaded for the flash hider and I want to know what the thread pitch is. I'm sure it is metric and who sells an adapter that goes to 1/2 X 28?

Thanks

Might try Gem-tech (sp?) or Innovative Technologies.

Good luck!

I know the sig mosquito adapter screws right on(backwards), you will have to enlarge the opening in the front sight base to get it to screw in the correct way.

unfortunately I dont know if it will actually allow the use of a can, as my dealer was unwilling to let me dremmel the front sight base. but it seemed too short to me.

probably not a lot of help, but if you have a machinist make a longer mosquito adapter, it should work.

I ordered the adapter from Swarfworks direct. Will post how it looks and fits when I get it.

Thanks for the replies. I am starting to like this little gun alot.

My fun shop has one for $525. I paid $425 for my GSG-5L 1-2 months ago.

My dealer owed me a favor.

I made out like a bandit. Now am in the process of SBRing the damn thing.

You'll be happy with it. He is putting out a nice product. I bought both. I'll run the 3 lug without the silencer as it looks better than the flash hider.

Received the adapter today and the fit/finish is excellent. Worth the money.
