Yeah guys, the thin steel at the muzzle is where I get concerned. If the bore is pretty small diameter (say 7mm or under) and the threads are relatively large, like 5/8-24, there’s probably still enough steel there to not create much of an issue.

But in cases where the steel remaining at the muzzle is not particularly thick, I just wonder if that’s a potential problem. I can’t see it being a net benefit if you’re not gonna use it by putting on a brake or a can, but I’m not sure if that necessarily means it’s likely to cause issues either. Like just because it doesn’t help anything, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll hurt anything either. I just don’t know.
