1. Will the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR for Ruger® 10/22® .920 bull barrels work on guns other than my Ruger® 10/22®?

   The Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR for Ruger® 10/22® .920 bull barrels is specifically designed for Ruger® 10/22® bull barrels. While it will be able to be screwed onto any 22LR firearm that has the barrel correctly threaded 1/2x28 TPI, It would be unlikely that it would correctly match the diameter of the barrel on any other firearms unless that barrel was also exactly .920 diameter.

2. Will the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR work on TAPER Barrel 10/22® rifles?

   The Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR will physically screw onto threaded TAPER barrels that are correctly threaded 1/2x28TPI but the Pike Arms® "920" THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR will be a considerably larger diameter than the end of the taper barrel which is about .600 diameter.

3. Will the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR work with other calibers such as .17 or .22 magnum?

   The Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR works with all standard Ruger® 10/22® calibers, in both .22 and .17.

4. Will the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR work with .223 / 5.56 firearms?

   The Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR is only rated for .22LR applications. Although it will physically screw onto a 5.56 rifle such as an AR15, the lightweight aluminum construction, while ideal for .22LR applications, would not withstand repeated center fire use. In order to prevent damage to the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR and possible injury, it should only be used for .22LR applications.

5. Does the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR work as a sound suppressor? Will it make my shooting any quieter?

6. Will the Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR change my rifle's accuracy?

7. Will I be able to "feel" the additional weight on my barrel?

   You will not be able to tell the difference. The Pike Arms® "920" 22LR THREADED FLASH HIDER / COMPENSATOR is so light that it is not perceptible.
