I bought a take down 10/22 and wanted to thread it for my suppressor but promised my self I wouldn't do it until I figured out how to thread the barrel and keep the front sight.
I have had this gun about 2 months trying to figure out how to do it and I finally did.
Now I feel dumb it took me so long. Trial and error baby.
Starting point :
Not enough room to thread and keep the front sight
This time I just cut the front band off instead of turning it down.
18.5 " barrel I removed about 1.150" So I am still good :
Indexing the bore
and some threading and Success. Oh yea and made a thread protector while I was at it
