    I am going to perminantly fit the suppressor via my mig welder so that the finished length of the barrel will be 10 inches ish depending on the suppressor length.
    22 is a pos single shot and this is a trial, so I can have a nice quiet suppressed rifle that dosent catch on the bush and brush while its over my shoulder

    Nah a 22 is no good for poaching, this is for work and shooting wild cats without having to lug around a long awkward 22 that no matter how long the barrel is the velocity is subsonic. So why not have it short and quiet while still being legal. I think it's win win

    Cool idea Bill, I like it.

    You could drill/pin the suppressor on and then spot weld over the pin holes. This would be a tidy way of doing it without over heating the barrel.

    If you could hunt with a pistol legally it would almost be worth having pig dogs.... Almost

    my welds resemble a turkey perch i dont think over penetration is going to be an issue

    the pinning type of attachment -ala muzzlebreak type did cross my mind but i think a shallow weld on the back of the supp joining it to the barrel will suffice that and some lock tight should do it

    all I want is a convincingly over the top amount of weld to asure anyone looking at it that that is isnt going to come off even if someone trys really hard
