AA grendel barrels cut concentric to bore? (suppressor) - InsaneAuto86 - 03-29-2013

I have a 20" AA grendel barrel. Are the threads cut correctly for suppressor use?

I know that the largest reason that AA rejects barrels is because the chamber or bore is not concentric to the barrel. It's possible one sneaks through now and then, but I've never heard of anyone having baffle strikes with an AA barrel.

I have three Grendel tubes (one made by LW for AA, one from Sabre for AA, and one direct from Sabre) that I run suppressed. All were properly concentric.

Short answer-- yes. They are highly likely to be good.

CORRECT ANSWER--- Trust no barrel when mounting a can. Always verify concentricity before firing, regardless of who made it.
