Given your vast collection of goodie's and inside trade information,I was wondering if you could supply me with some information that seems hard to find. I make custom muzzle brake's for rifle's and anything else,but I have a hard time finding the barrel diameter's or thread info. I'd be happy to send you prototype's in exchange for the information.

Does anyone out there in the wide world of sports know of any source or sources for this sort of information? I would assume that the greatest interest would be for AR-15 style rifles and perhaps the modern sniper variants (Rem 700, etc.); do the major manufacturers often publish thread information? Like I told Dean in my response, most of my rifles are either milsurps, rimfire, or permanently welded to comply with the MA AWB {spit}; I guess if there were a cool brake for my Mossberg that would be neat (like the "Roadblocker" brake)...
Any and all information for Dean would be greatly appreciated.
That is all.

There are two fairly common specs for muzzle threads. 1/2-28 for .22cal rifles and handguns, and 5/8-24 for .30cal rifles.
Barrel diameter is going to depend VERY much on the barrel maker; what one company calls "bull" may be someone else's "varmint", etc.
*To me*, though:
Bull = 1.00" OD
Varmint = 0.75" OD
Once you're past that, I'm out of my range...
Since a lot of suppressor mounts are built for attachment on brake mounts, you could probably look at the thread mounts for popular AR15 cans...
From http://www.swrmfg.com/Products.asp , it looks like the .30 cal rifles are 5/8 x 24 tpi and the ARs are 1/2 x 28 (same a 9mm and .22 LR)
"I make custom muzzle brake's for rifle's and anything else."
Really? Anything else?
How about one for my Nikon D80?
And maybe one to the loudmouth marketing-drone down the hall from my office.

Thank you for your help! You should have told me you had a mossberg,as I make those too! The link you posted just show's one of my problem's tho.I could easily make a decent copy of that,but it appear's that there was some type of threaded bushing at the muzzle....What size and thread is it??!!
I know most of the common stuff,and Mayberry was kind enough to give me measurements of his Mosin stuff.Customers have measured they're gun's for several customs,such as the remington VTR's and enfield's,so I have a decent supply of info,but more is alway's better!
Thank's again for everyone's help!

1/2-36 is also common for 9mm.
