Hello everyone! Had a quick question. Sometime in the (hopefully near) future I plan on getting a take apart 22lr-5.56 suppressor. With that being said, I'd like to be able to put it on my Savage 22lr bolt action rifle. Problem is the barrel on the rifle isn't threaded. I'm terrible at guessing measurements but it looks like I have about a 1/2in length on the barrel to not effect the front sight and the barrel is about 1/4in thick. I also know a guy who knows a guy who is supposedly very good with a lathe and can do threading. Does this seem possible? Is it dangerous? Any other advice?
On a random side note, I got this rifle pretty cheap. So if you advise against this for the sole reason of possibly ruining the gun, I'm willing to take the risk. If this is stupid and dangerous though, let me know. The last thing I want to do is take a trip to the ER or even worse, the morgue.
Thanks!
John
