Yep, it may work just fine until another part that's at the far end of it's tolerance range makes it go kaput.
I would venture to say that this would not be an issue for the vast majority of PSA's customer base.I mean, who would thread barrels and send then knowingly to the public with issues like that?
I don't know, that's why I've posted this thread.I would venture to say that this would not be an issue for the vast majority of PSA's customer base.
Chances are most any brake or flash hider would not be affected by this problem, so most consumers would never know there was a problem.
What percentage of PSA customers put suppressors on their rifles?
That's an easy thing to bypass with the end user, a $20.00 piece of drill stock will instantly tell you if you have a problem.Right!
That's where the term "stacking tolerances" came from.
Darn.... I was looking for some good ole INGO fisticuffs.Thanks,
End Thread, close it.

Some companys sell them, I just order drill stock in the correct size from McMaster Carr.Pardon me, I am suppressor dumb. Why wouldn't suppressor sellers include this with their purchase or sell it as an accessory to go with?

I ordered drill rod the same size as what one of the supressor manufacturers were offering for sale for a bunch less money.Do you slug your barrel to determine the correct size? Or use another bore measuring method? How tight should the test drill stock be?
Do you have to take any special precautions to avoid rifling or crown damage? Or is that not a concern?
What is the procedure for this testing? Test as assembling or test after assembled? Do you feel the drill rod sliding on the rifling, but not touching any part of the suppressor?

It's a sung fit in the barrel the hole in the can is larger. I check when the can is mounted on the firearm.
You are doing a check to make dam sure the bore is concentric with the mounted can.
I'm not going to be aggressive enough as to hurt the bore or crown in any way.
Sub 150 rounds just sounds like a torque or staking issue IMO.Idk about their barrels but I've had 2 of their BCGS decide to part ways with the gas key while being fired suppressed, sub 150 rounds each lol No issues with their guns before but based on what little data I have there I just assume that they aren't going to hold up to the additional beatings all that back pressure is putting on them.
For sure, but all those are QC related issues.Sub 150 rounds just sounds like a torque or staking issue IMO.
Or a fastener heat treat problem. Ruger has that problem with the SFAR and some of those gas key fasteners not actually being advertised grade.
