    Bought myself a birthday present. First year manufacture, I would put it at 98%.

    Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me ...

    If you're leaning towards a suppressor. Why didn't you go with a threaded bbl?

    It will happen.

    This was a pretty cheap entry and I figured I can just pick up a threaded barrel easy enough when needed.

    Did I screw up?

    Need to find a threaded barrel for one of my pistols too. Had I some forethought years ago before I started stamp collecting, I would have bought one with.

    IMO, Yes. It's going to run you another $100+ to outsource that bbl for thread, recrown and remove front sight. Probably $150 on top of your original investment.

    OR

    I'd drop the money for a TacSol bbl, a magpul stock and ruger BX trigger. . Using the receiver & bolt assy.

    I'm not looking to build a tac driver, just something low budget to plink with.

    Anything wrong with the $100 ER Shaw threaded barrels at brownells, etc?

    Bert has done great work for me, but he's not the only smith in town.

    Besides, there's still a chance that stupid shit gets put down.
