I've tried (unsuccessfully so far) to contact pistol barrel manufacturers inquiring if they are planning to offer a threaded barrel (or longer barrel that could be threaded by a third party). Haven't heard back from any of them. So my question is this: Do any of the forum members have any information regarding threaded barrels. I know Gemtech is supposed to offer a package with a Blackslide suppressor at some point, but I haven't heard any more since the initial announcement.
