OK- might not belong here but: I got a new barrel from-!!!-
they did not tell me it was 1/2x28 tpi, so I ordered a A2 1/2x36
from -???-with the barrel.

Well it does not fit. I called them back only to find out they don't
have any in stock, and we are not sure when the machine shop
will bore out any more, so call back in a week.

End of story

Just drill out a standard A2. Doesnt need to be too accurate, just larger than the bore. I prefer 28pitch to 36, lets me use the same suppressor mount for my pistol and AR.

Can anyone explain to me how a 9mm can safely have 0.07" of barrel between the bullet and the flash suppressor safely?  It seems far too thin.  Is the suppressor that strong that it reinforces the barrel enough?

.5 inch diamater with .354 hole in the center...
.146 inches left of barrel metal making up two walls.
.073 inches per wall.

Are my dimensions wrong?
