Thoughts on a threaded barrel on Savage Model 99?

[ashley308]

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to see if anyone has threaded their barrel on a Savage model 99? Recently got my suppressor out of jail and was thinking of installing a ASR Muzzle brake on my .308 99c.

My somewhat fuddish father thinks it’s unwise to do this to a 60 year old rifle. This rifle was given to me when I was a kid from a family friend who is no longer with us. Ill never get rid of it. What are your thoughts?

Bonus points if anyone has a picture of a model 99 suppressed or with a thread on brake.

Thanks

Do it. Hunting rifles are best suppressed.

I’d personally get a henry x model if I want to supress a lever. Tou may want to pass it down one day to a relative in which case it’s best in its original form. I’d never say never with regards to selling a gun..that said its your rifle do whatever you want with it
