    Not to sure who is the bigger idiot here, the guy the sold the wrong suppressor or the guy who bought the rifle package and went and fired it without checking everything out first. The M15x1 suppressor would of just slipped straight over the M14x1 thread and not pulled up tight at all..

    Not trying to excuse the mistake but M15 to M14 is surprisingly odd in that if you don't catch it as you screw it up it will butt up tight and sit there pretty convincingly.

    Yeah couldn't agree more some suppressors manufacturers don't have very fine tolerances on there threads I've seen one well known suppressor brand of with 3 different threaded cans fit snuggly on a completely different threaded barrel.

    A 15x1 suppressor will "tighten" onto a 14x1 thread - you wouldn't want to torque it up too tight but it will definitely screw on there

    Interesting. I just tried my M15x1 suppressor on 3 of my rifles threaded M14x1 and with all 3 rifles the M15x1 suppressor just slid straight over the full length of threading, no winding involved just slid on and off.
