1/2" x 28 is standard for .223/5.56 correct? And 5/8" x 24 is for .30 cal right?
Well somehow this 5.56 is 5/8 x 24. I tried putting a new comp./ brake, but sure enough, the threads are not 1/2". Now I guess I'm limited to .308 style brakes, and sadly they won't be as efficient right? Will this cause any issues? I wanted this gun to kick as little as possible. Are there any benefits to having this odd ball threaded muzzle? Should I just get a Warden/ Forward style comp? Or just cap it with a protector?
Such a simple thing, I don't know how I missed the details...

did you get a 300 black out barrel by mistake?
Wow nogger u r dim
>>27921904
I have not shot it, or chambered it, but the barrel has the lil quarter inch lookin hole. Def. not a .30 cal.

It's freaky, I know, I called and asked the manufacturer if it was a mistake. They said no, and that is makes the end of the barrel stronger.
This is it:

got you. gas port position would also be another indicator.
anyway, i guess shit like this happens but thats weird. theres really no benefit that i can think of to having that combo.
id send it back if possible only bc 1/2x28 devices are more common, varied, and cheaper.

it even says right on the page "1/2x28"
>stronger
uh, okay.
They JUST now edited it. Okay, I swear to you guys, that the page said 5/8 x 24 a few minutes ago, I 'll even show you guys the email of whats going on
>>27921991
just send it back and get a new one

Maybe it fits an oil filter/solvent trap that way.
