[QUOTE="D-mon, post: 1785380, member: 1523"] It seems that the US is limited with only 1/2-28 thread and 5/8-24 mostly which severely restrict options of threadings when foreign manufacturers can have up to 15 or so options of Threadings available. Now days with the cnc machining of parts , any brake or suppressor could be supplied with way more threading options. It is really up to the manufacturers to sit down and establish a few more options for the general public. A good thread should remove just enough meat to establish a good shoulder but not remove too much material as to look ridiculously thin. As an exemple , I have threaded recently a savage rifle in 300wm to the install a brake with a muzzle diameter of about 15mm. The thread was M14x1 which leaves about 2.51mm of wall thickness between bottom of the thread and inside of the bore . [/QUOTE]
