How did you go about ensuring that everything is centered so you don't shoot it off? A good machinist should have no issues with that. Checking it out on a surface plate will ensure everything is centered (both can and barrel threads). What is the I.D. of the can? |

Why? I know I don't like the extra length my REAL can adds to my weapon. ![]() He didn't add any length to it. Actually took some off by removing the flash hider. Notice that it is threaded on at the front of the "can" Ah! The pics are filturd here, so I can't see the detail til I get home. thanks. |

i can just imagine seeing someone freak out at the range if you're shooting a .22 conversion also...lol +1 I love the reaction of fellow shooters when I take out my 16" ST-22 w/ fake can (extended type)... especially in CA... it's priceless Also just wanted to say nice job!! Did you end up blasting it before spraying? |
