I finally did some reading to see the in and outs of how the barrel installs and have a question. From the way it apprears to me, the thread adapter on the the front of the barrel actually holds the barrel in place. Is that correct?
I thought the barrel screwed onto the upper at the rear and the adapter was just something used to add a flash hider or whatever. Does it hold the barrel in the receiver? I am wanting to make a setup that has a permenently attached suppressor. If the thread adapter is required to hold the barrel in place, then I have to put the suppressor on it and it will be removable. Alabama doesn't allow SBR from what I'm told so I have to figure a way to make the suppressor fixed on the 10.3 barrel to keep it legal.
