Barrel Threading
We thread rifles for suppressors or muzzle brakes using a single point threading on a HAAS II commercial lathe (CNC).
*Not available for lever actions, shotguns, and revolvers.
Description and Specs
Silencer Central offers a unique barrel threading service where you can ship the gun directly to us or drop it directly at HQ. Simply strip your rifle down to a barreled action for easy handling and we’ll do the rest! No matter if it is a common hunting rifle or a custom match grade piece, we’re ready to take on your barrel threading project, and give it all the attention to detail and care that Silencer Central is famous for.
We will accept barreled actions and complete guns based on the purchased Tier Package. If you send a barreled action, please place packaging around the trigger housing to ensure it doesn’t get damaged. If you have an AR platform, please send only the upper. We do not need the lower half for the threading process and because of the pistol grip, it doesn’t fit well in the soft cases for delivery.
Remove all accessories from your firearm before mailing or dropping them off. This includes slings, mounts, scopes, scope rings, etc. Any firearms with attached accessories could be subject to additional charges. *We accept no liability or responsibility for any damage that could occur if your rifle isn’t packaged according to our examples below. This includes removing all accessories from the firearm prior to delivery or drop-off.
Threading to Caliber
We thread your barrels to meet the guidelines given to us by our suppressor manufacturer to ensure each rifle has the proper amount of shoulder to support your silencer. We thread to caliber and then cross-check diameter to ensure stability.
Caliber | Thread (Default) | Min. Muzzle Diameter | Thread (Secondary) | Thread Length |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rimfire | 1/2 x 28 | .560″ | 7/16 x 28 | 0.400″ |
.20 to 24 | 1/2 x 28 | .560″ | 7/16 x 28 | 0.600″ |
.243 to .358 | 5/8 x 24 | .685″ | 1/2 x 28 | 0.600″ |
.375 to .458 | 3/4 x 24 | .810″ | 5/8 x 24 | 0.600″ |

We thread to the recommendation and guidelines of the company that builds our suppressors. We always thread to caliber first and then cross reference with diameter of the barrel. Most of our customers have the gunsmith determine the best thread pitch for each barrel to ensure the best results.
If you absolutely want a specific thread, you can put it in the note section on the threading order form and the gunsmith will try to fulfill your request, if diameter allows. We offer a thread adapter that steps up a 1/2 x 28 thread to 5/8 x 24 if your thread is smaller than your silencers thread pitch.
We do not make custom barrels. We are set up to mainly do threading and at this time are not setup to build or install barrels.
At this time we are only able to thread a blowback-style pistol like a Ruger Mark series pistol. We can look to see if an aftermarket barrel exists for your pistol and (if available) order one for you. Payment is required when ordering and our team will ship you the barrel once the barrel is received at our HQ.
