What's the deal with threaded barrels?
- Thread starter SQUAREHEAD1
- Start date
Some models come in a 4" standard barrel length from the makers.
To make them rest. in Canada, a quarter inch is added.
This little nub sticking out past the slide, looks less ridiculous(to some), if threaded and sometimes capped.
And fake silencers look cool, to the same people.
My opinion, anyways.

Threaded barrels are not illegal in Canada.
You can also use a detachable compensator which is also not illegal.
Also some guns are imported into Canada in stock form with a treaded barrel because in other parts of the world freedoms are not as limited as in Canada.
Its just a tease...........so you don't forget that suppressors are illegal since the only thing you can screw on there is a fake suppressor
Fake cans? Sounds like my neighbor.

compensator's are fun little add on's once you get into them.
they are only limited by your imagination and money.
they are like pin stripe's on your car, decoration.
or.... those little tassley dingly balls you can put on the inside of your car if you are so inclined.

visual aid?
i think so.

Most of the centerfire stuff is intended for suppressors, or just the tacticool look. On rimfire guns they're a touch more usefull in that you can use comps, barrel weights, fake can's, and such. Comps have almost totally replaced Pin Gun weights as a muzzle attachment, but some people still like them. Just be glad you don't live in Californistan, they're prohib there.

I agree...that extra 1/4" sticking out the front of the slide has turned me off from buying some HG's. With the extension threaded it looks purposeful rather than an afterthought. Since my HG's are just for punching paper...."looks" are important too.
