We've had a number of people ask about making a three-lug adapter for the Ti-Rant 45 silencer that is compatible with the three-lug barrels of the B&T APC45. Having not yet handled an APC45, I was hoping some of the readers here might be able to answer a couple of questions for me.
1) I know the smooth area ahead of the lugs is larger on the three-lug 45 Auto barrel than the 9mm barrel. Are the lugs the same size for both 9 and 45, or different? 2) Three-lug barrels and adapters all seem to be pretty standard. Are the various 45 Auto three-lug barrels and adapters standard as well? I appreciate your insights, Mike Smith/AAC SilentMike |

The lugs are the same size as the 9mm's.
I could be wrong but the only two companies that I know of that 45 three lugs are B&T and Griffin Armament. B&T release their's first, you'll have to ask Griffin if they got with B&T when they developed their adapters.

Also....please don't forget about us M16x1 LH Kriss Vector 45 owners with TiRant 45's. We'll also need an adapter and mount. Mike Smith/AAC SilentMike |

Q: Will your 3 LUG INTERFACE ASSEMBLY FOR .40 S&W, 10MM, AND .45 ACP work with the B&T 45? A: Don't think so. Haven't tested it. Thanks. |

You're already covered! Use the existing M16 x 1 LH Ti-Rant 45 piston in conjunction with our new tensioned fixed-barrel spacer and you're good to go. Mike Smith/AAC SilentMike |

Email Q to and A from Griffin: Q: Will your 3 LUG INTERFACE ASSEMBLY FOR .40 S&W, 10MM, AND .45 ACP work with the B&T 45? A: Don't think so. Haven't tested it. Thanks. When I asked them about a 45 adapter they responded by saying they didn't know a 45 cal three lug existed. |

Thanks for the reply 59chevy. I know the original H&K spec 9mm three-lug barrel is 15mm diameter in front of the lugs. Would you happen to know the diameter of the barrel in front of the lugs on your B&T? Thanks again, Mike Smith/AAC SilentMike |
