    Default Dipping question

    For those of you who have dipped suppressor rods, did you do the rod as well as the coupling and if you did the rod did you have a problem with the extra thickness causing the rod to be too tight.

    Nick, you should check out the Kolorfusion. More durable than dipping and looks better too. I am sending my Moxie out soon to Kolorfusion.

    I have had factory and aftermarket suppressors dipped and done by Kolorfusion and they both had issues with being too tight, the Kolorfusion was just the base but I had to dremel drill it out to get the anodized rod to fit and the dipped ones had both the base and rod dipped and they had fit issues as well.

    I was afraid of that, guess I'll just do the collar and not the rod, thanks Jamie

    How did you get them to fit back in?
