Hi,

Long time reader, new member and soon to be new Whisper owner.
I'm working with Tp555 to get a barrel, block and tube going. I need to figure out what threads I need on the muzzle for the standard 7.62 cans out there. I've dabbled with suppressors before, but only .22's.
What threading would y'all recommend for this one? It will be a 16" barreled AR15.

Thanks in advance!

Standard threads for 30 cal are 5/8-24 tpi, unless like me, a special purpose application 1/2-28 tpi for a YHM 9mm Wraith XL and others. Depends on what you want to use it for.
