7/16x28 thread adapter for OG suppressors

[MThuntr]

I have a 280AI Kimber that shoots great but has a radial brake that doesn't get much these days. I'm thinking an OG30 would be the ticket. Problem is Kimbers have 7/16 threads. Unknown doesn't make one.

Anyone make a 7/16 to 5/8 adapter that fits inside an OTB suppressor or do I just knock like 1/8" off each of the corners from the Kimber brand one I have?

I'd file down your current one and Roksett it on your barrel. If it comes off in the can, it is a PITA. Maybe you could grind a slot in the part that mates against the shoulder, so you could unscrew it out of the can, should it get stuck.

Getting stuck is a big fear. I think I'll have to see if there's a design I can copy somewhere online

This suppressor would likely get moved between a couple rifles so I may use a very small dab of high temp anti seize.

Yeah, it's a problem with OTB that doesn't exist with traditional. If you plan to move the can around, I would defenitly plan for the worst and have a way to remove the adapter, should it get stuck in the can. Notching the adapter and making a price of metal to act as a "key/ screwdriver" to remove it seems like the easiest I could think of.
