FAQ
Will this fit my Glock 19 barrel?
Yes, if your Glock 19 (or other model) barrel is chambered in 9mm or .357 SIG and has 1/2×28 external muzzle threads, this thread protector will fit. Always verify your barrel’s thread pitch before ordering.
Do I need to use thread locker?
No, and we don’t recommend it. This thread protector should be hand-tightened only. Using thread locker can make removal difficult and is unnecessary for its intended protective function.
