I want (am looking for) a lever action 22LR that I can put a suppressor on. Have spend a lot of time search this forum and searching the web. I know it can be done as people here (BigWaylon) have done it. Could message direct but am thinking others may have same questions that I have. This image is the one that I keep looking at and have more questions than answers.
1. Can the barrel be threaded without relocating the front sight? (this Rossi does not have a front sight)
2. How does one load with the silencer / suppressor installed without burning their fingers?
3. Is there a maximum diameter silencer / suppressor that will work? (what size is max O.D.?)
4. Is there someone local to Charlotte that can thread the barrel? (This image looks like there is some kind of extension on the barrel.)
5. What questions about doing this am I not asking?
6. Could a Henry lever action 22LR be setup with a threaded barrel to mount a suppressor?
7. What other lever action 22LR could be setup to mount a suppressor?
8. Are there any LGS that have a lot of lever action 22LR rifles in stock?
I like the idea of a composite stock. IF I could get a lever action 22LR in stainless and composite stock, I would tend to go that way if it was not a lot more money. Henry also makes lever action 22LR but they appear to be more money than the Rossi. Henry has a 24" Frontier rifle that comes with thread barrel and is advertised as silencer ready.
Bet I have more questions after I click the Post Thread button.
