1.375x24 minor diameter?

Yes, it can be legal to make a silencer. For everything Form-1, from silencer designs that are easily made, to filing forms with the BATF, to 3D modeling. Remember, you must have an approved BATF Form-1 to make a silencer. All NFA laws apply.

1.375x24 minor diameter?

Post by Astocks2622 »

I'm building my first form 1 suppressor, and want to go to with 1.375x24 (Hub) threads. I'm finding conflicting info on the major and minor diameters. One source is showing 1.370 major and 1.335 minor, theoretical machinist is showing 1.372 major, but 1.319 minor. The major diameters are close enough, but the minors are .016 different...
Any input on which is accurate?

I would look up the spec in Machinist Handbook and use that. Or, buy your mount and use it as the gauge. It’s probably the safest bet.

Yes i would use the adapter/mount as a guide. You have no idea what the thread spec is on the mount. If you not making things to sell then its better to have a good fit rather than meeting a thread spec
