Thanks. That's what I thought as long as the tailstock (?) is short enough.

No, I believe you're thinking of threading while turning between centers, kind of. I thread with the muzzle only protruding from the chuck, where the back can be pivoted around in a spider and the bore indicated concentric so if a person uses a suppressor, they won't strike a baffel.
