Can & barrel different thread pitch

[Gunsite Grad]

My 9mm can is threaded 1/2 x 28 but the gun I want to buy has a barrel threaded 13.5 x mm LH. Options?

Depends on a couple of things. Alot of cans have adapters that will cover different pitches. 1/2 x 28 and 5/8 x 24 being the standard.

See if there is a replacement barrel for the pistol that us threaded 1/2 x 28.

I'm guessing you probably have your eye on a HK or Sig with that thread. Barrels for those are pricey. I'd look at a thread adapter.

Yep, starting to like the Sig 320 series.

What can ? replacing the end cap might be cheaper than a barrel even if you have to send it to the manufacturer

Is that thread not available in a new piston?

You can use the Revolution pistons in your Optimus. That is coming from Griffin. I have a Optimus as well. Send them a email to be sure, but I'm 99.9% positive thats what the rep told me, as I had a P226 for a little while.

Your only option is to find a 13.5 metric piston that's compatible with your can.
