    I didn't undercut the threads on my rifles like this (Personal preference) so it's likely that is what @Jhon encountered. Any suppressors I've made have the internal thread recessed so it's not an issue but maybe DPT don't make theirs like that. In that case a DPT wouldn't fit my rifle as it'll foul on the thread before it hit the shoulder.

    All of our suppressors feature an internal thread relief of approximately 2.5mm in length. Occasionally, we encounter issues when muzzle threads lack a relief cut. These problems often arise due to the non-threaded section being excessively long or having a diameter larger than the threaded portion.
