Lube or anti-seize on threads?

[sdupontjr]

Whats to consensus on lube / anti-seize on barrel threads for suppressor. While I dont have any issues with my Nomad Ti xc on my Tikka, was just curious if I should put anything. Threads came back from Kampfeld spotless. Cleaned the crap out of the Nomad threads. Goes on with no resistance but still in the back of my mind if I should.

I use rocksett. Not hard to take it off when I need to either.

I use the stuff Griffin makes.

Just keep the threads clean after taking it off or before putting it on.

I've used the shotgun choke tube lube.... that seems to work just fine

I use nickel anti-sieze on all of mine. Be forewarned just a dab goes a long way. You could paint a battleship with a can of that stuff

Perfect. Kinda what I thought.

Didn't think about the choke tube lube. have that with my Benelli Super black eagle

Did they have any sort of grease on them? I just got two barrels back from him yesterday (threaded and with thread protectors) and they definitely had grease on the threads. Side note - his workmanship is impeccable.

Wow this is somehow the first time anyone have ever mentioned lubricating choke tube threads to me. Never heard of this before, and I’ve definitely had them seized up pretty good before. Gonna have to pick up a bottle.

Saw this thread earlier and didn't think much about it, went shooting... Thinking I'll give her a little choke tube lube next trip.

I use nickel anti-sieze. Just use something, even locktite or Rocket, primary because you will know how to break it free, unlike if better on metal binds up.
