MK 760 with 3 lug barrel

[davekr]

Can the 760 be modified to use a suppressor with a 3 lug attachment ? Or, are all of the 760 suppressors screw on ? Any pics would be appreciated.

Purchase a 3 lug adapter that has a internal thread and then attach it to your threaded barrel or have someone make a barrel with the 3 lug on it.

My gunsmith used a spare barrel and shroud to make the 2" barrel with 3 Lug shown in the pic. I use a Striker 2 on it and it's pretty quiet rig. If you're going to be at the ISSMC shoot I'll have the MK760 and the shorty there.

John C. - That looks really nice. I would like to chronograph that barrel to see if you can get 1000 fps from 115 gr or 147 gr bullets. I may contact you later about obtaining the short barrel with 3 lug.

John, nice setup. What kind of groups do you get with that length of barrel?

Thanks,
Dan

I fired the shorty with and without the can just a few times to assure it cycled and never tried for groups. Since the barrel can be rotated to any position and the suppressor can be indexed to any of the 3 lugs groups could be anywhere. I recently put a paint mark on the barrel to remind me to always index it in the same place. Same with the can. I'll post again when I get good data.
