Quoted: Do they use the same flash hider as on the 223? Assuming it is bored out to accept the 9MM.
Are the barrel threads the same as the 223, 1/2" x 28tpi?
What is the wall thickness of the 9MM barrel at the threads?
I have a 9 MM surpressor (registered!) that I'd like to use on it but it has 1/2" X 28 threads. I'm concerned about the wall thickness of the 9 MM threaded barrel. I'm told it will finish out at 0.075". I mic'd a 9MM pistol barrel that only mic'd 0.050" but would like some reassurance that this would not damage the barrel. Any facts and/or opnion you could share would be appreciated.

Many people are threading 9mm barrels for 1/2-28 without problems.
The wall thickness at the bottom of the threads ends up at 0.046", quite thin in my opinion.
I prefer a larger thread, but if your can is 1/2-28, then it's a no-brainer what thread to put on the barrel.
As for flash hiders, I can open one up to clear a 9mm bullet for you as well.
I think the A1 flash hider will clear without any work, but I would have to go grab one and measure to be sure.
I specialize in barrel work and I can certainly thread your barrel and open up a flash hider for you.
