Buying a threaded barrel & suppressor for my Glock 17 soon and I got this slight amount of uncertainty. I am 99.999% sure these are the same thing but I just want to be 100% sure about this before I commit to anything.
My question is simple, is 1/2"x28 UNEF (specs from suppressor maker) the same threading as UNF 1/2x28 (specs from barrel maker).

Re: Dumb threading question
Yes and no
1/2-28 is Unified Extra Fine so they should be UNEF
UNF is unified fine (which in 1/2" would be 20 threads per inch)
then
UNC is Unified Course (which is the 1/2-13 you find in the hardward store typically)
1/2-28 is 1/2-28
Unless you start talking about the actual thread limits, how tight the threads are from the male to the female (represented as H1, H2, H3) Most people don't get that far into it.

As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such a twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air -- however slight -- lest we become unwilling victims of the darkness.

I'm sorry, I worked midnights last night .... I didn't really realize I was rambling ....
They are the same - (WOW - that was easy!)
