M&P 10 Barrel Options

[101ABN327]

OK. I corresponded with one of the the S&W reps on another forum, to which i was told everything on the M&P 10 is proprietary. That being said, I know there are some smart guys in the shooting community that will not take no for an answer! Has anyone experimented with other manufacturers barrels on the M&P? I need details, as I want to SBR mine and the Tactical barrel that came on it is not going to work. The barrel diameter, behind the muzzle threads is smaller and will not allow for rethreading for my suppressor mount. I know there was talk last year about S&W releasing 16" barrels but as it would seem, just conjecture...

Discussion?

I wouldn't mind a 16" heavier barrel option.

It probably wouldn't be too difficult to get a barrel fitted onto the extension, just cost ya labor at your gunsmith for the time it'd take to thread it to the right pitch and so forth. Try something like a Hart or Pac Nor or similar. Depends on what it's worth to ya. Kinda takes away some of the price advantage on it which is a main drawing point. Like a lot of things gun related it all depends on priorities and what route you're willing to take to get from point A to point B.

Has anyone ever taken the extension off and fitted it to a different barrel?
