See a lot of places making these adapters, anyone better than others for tolerances? I'd rather not *have* to use an adapter, but sometimes it's necessary.

Can you be a bit more specific...
Rifle, Pistol (fixed barrel or not) and what "can" to what firearm (caliber) would really help. Spacers, adapters, Quick Detach... etc, etc comes to play _________________ "Shoot Often, Shoot Safely and Share Your Sport!" Jim Scoutten, Shooting USA |

A thread adapter. A female - male threaded adapter to go from one thread pitch to another thread pitch.

Good question, I've been wondering the same thing.
For example, I bought a P22 thread adapter recently and there were several brands available. Hopefully I didn't buy a crooked one.  _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

No personal experience with adapters besides a CNC Warrior 26mm Yugo to 5/8 standard adapter. If I had to pick an adapter for a suppressor I'd buy one from a reputable suppressor company rather then some random reseller on Ebay selling Chinese crap. |

I went with Gemtech for the popular sizes, must've read my mind lol. Been pretty happy with their products, just making sure I wasn't missing out on something else. There are a couple odd pitches I need to locate for certain things and Gemtech doesn't make what I'm after on those, so still doing some searching for the unique stuff. I'd rather build my own than buy, particularly over the Chineseastanian eBay garbage, but wasn't sure if I was passing over some quality makers that weren't on my radar.

There are other suppressor companies making adapters, I just came across gemtechs first. If they have the one you need you should be good to go.

Dammit. Another bookmarked site. More money to follow, no doubt.

TROS, Tornado Technologies, Gem-tech isn't too shabby either.
I've read mixed reviews of the Silencer Stores adapters. I used to see random threads of adapters breaking. I think it's run by Titsworth. I could be wrong, but Google is your friend. _________________ NRA Life Member NRA Range Safety Officer +82 positive feedback on SGN |
