So, if you use a pistol caliber suppressor on a rifle, you are supposed to replace the spring with a fixed barrel spacer, right? I have a YHM Cobra suppressor in .45 cal, and wanted to use it on a .45 caliber carbine, but it doesn't appear that YHM offers a fixed barrel spacer for this suppressor. I have read on the internet that you can shoot the Cobra with the spring in place, and have also read that this will result in excessive wear on the threads and is a really terrible idea. Some say you should make your own. Other manufacturers like Silencerco offer the spacer, but YHM does not.
Anybody tackled this issue, or have any leads on getting a compatible fixed barrel spacer? Do you know of anybody that could make one?
