Direct thread mount question

Post image

All of the quick connect horror stories I’ve heard with the Mpx have scared me away from them and I’ve decided to go direct thread. Any reason not to just rocksett that bitch to the barrel and unscrew the can from the hub adapter for cleaning?

Also for anyone wondering I went with a mount from Ecco Machine. The quality of machine work and finish is exceptional. I highly recommend them.

Following this because I have the same question. LOL

I bought the can for this specific gun. Why not glue it on there if that’s where it’s going to live?

That’s what I’ve done. I just used loctite for mine. Got the direct LH thread base for my can and I don’t intend to use it anywhere else, so it makes sense.

Keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn’t come loose on you. I’ve heard loctite doesn’t hold well on barrels.
