Getting my .300 Fireball AR stuff together for my "no ban" build and Model 1 Sales only had the A2 FH availble for this barrel, they said it was threaded 1/2x36tpi(same as a 9mm) and the Phantom that they had was 1/2x28tpi so it wouldn't work. Does Yankee Hill make the Phantom in 1/2x36tpi with a larger hole for calibers greater then 5.56mm? If I have to live with the A2 I will but I like the looks of the Phantom more. Thanks for the help.

I am having my Phantom Milled for 9mm and having the 9mm barrel threaded for the Phantom.

So no one just makes one, you'd have to have one machined? I guess I'll stick with my A2 for now. Thanks.

That is the right tpi isn't it. I noticed that there was also a 1/2x32tpi. I know it's NOT 1/2x28tpi because that's what I was told by Model 1 Sales, I think he said 36tpi but also seeing a 32tpi has me all cornfuzed,LOL. I guess I'll just leave it "as is" for now until I can find out more about the availability of other FH that'll work. Also, if someone can clear up which thread it is I'd be greatful.

That's not the problem, it's the Threads Per Inch that's got me over a barrel(pun intended,LOL). I CAN'T thread a 1/2x28tpi onto my barrel so it's not like I could open one up and use it. I need a FH with different threads. I just can't really remember if the guy at M1S said it was 36tpi or 32 tpi. Guess I'll ask on Tuesday when I call to order a few extra things that I'd like. |

That's what I thought. He said that the .300 Fireball used a different thread then the 5.56 so it must be 36tpi. Anyway, do they make different Flash Hiders other then the A2 that'll fit a 9mm(or in my case .300FB.) barrel? |

Does a 9mm really need a flash hider after burning for 16 inches? I would like yo get one for my 9mm upper that is wearing a plain-jane A2 hider - Vortex would be awesome...

I don't think a 9mm or 45ACP would really need one. I'm not really sure how much flash I'll get out of my 16" ,.300 Fireball, I'd think most if not all of the 17grs of H-110 would be burned by the time it gets to the end of the barrel. I guess I'll have to do some dusk shooting after I get it set up just to see how much flash it'll have. If it's not too bad I'll stay with the A2. Why spend more money if I don't have to.
