Thread: installing an over barrel can easy to do your self?

If I order a bush on its own I only pay freight?

Sorry the reply to that question was regarding machining out the bush, not for purchasing a bush
If you are to purchase a bush its $15, I don't charge extra to machine out the bush.

@DPT all good mate will do it that way then I seem to be getting all sorts of measurements out of my callipers lol with a tolerance of 2mm lol so ill take the two rifles down to the local engineer and get him to take the measurements he has much better gear than I do

i agree with you @Maca49 the noice reduction its the same however there are other advantages to over barrel
1. ballence the suppressor isn't hanging off the end and there fore nose heavy. an overbarrel puts some waight further back to counter the noze heavyness a bit you may think that somethig as light as a dpt wouldn't matter but you do know its there wants to pull the muzzle down

2.more sturdy with a muzzle can the hole can is hanging off the muzzle thread thats alot of leaverage to damage something if you drop the gun... with an overbarrel you have 2 support points the muzzle thread and the rear bushing

3. slightly less extention beond the muzzle
