Is your suppressor hub compatible? If so, you can get direct thread or QD adapters for whatever thread pitch or muzzle device you want. Seems like 1/2x28 is pretty standard for .223/9mm/350 and 5/8x24 for larger.
Yes. I have A Scythe.

My understanding is there is a bit of shoulder to torque up against and then something like rockset or redloctite along all the threads to lock it firmly in place, then it’s faced off and contoured. Seems absolutely adequate as a surface to firmly hand tighten something up against, why would you think all that surface area with threadlocker would be overcome by that hand tight friction at the shoulder?
This is exactly what he explained to me.

Get them threaded to 1/2” and buy 1/2-5/8 adapters. The adapters have shoulders on them and are cheap. The shoulders that the smith can make are nice, but I don’t really think it’s necessary.
