The suppressor has 1/2-28 threads (Silencerco Sparrow, not purchased yet). What should I anticipate for cost? One shop said could be as much as $125 depending on the size of the barrel, which I have not measured yet. Thanks for any help. kstockfo

Gas prices the way they are the close gunsmith is getting more of my work. I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally
