Re: Must Barrell Ends Be Threaded To Accept A Suppressor?
There are some submachine guns (notably H&K MP5's) that have 3 lugs on the barrel that are made for attaching a silencer. There are also some silencer manufacturers that make quick disconnect adapters for silencers that attach to the barrel threading and then allow quick connect/disconnect. Tom Bowers out of Oregon makes some, I believe. He also does rebuilds of old suppressors too. I have an old 9mm two stage SWD suppressor that I bought with a machine gun in 2002. This kind used rubber "wipes" in the end cap that had to be replace and the ATF made difficult to procure. I sent it to Tom about a year ago and he rebuilt it completely and added a wipeless cap for less than the cost of a stamp. Check Bowers out on subguns.net .
