[TOOLS] Suppressor Alignment Rods $24.99 Free Shipping + Free Dope Card | Various Calibers
Posted by WombatPower69@reddit | gundeals | View on Reddit | 14 comments
These are carbon fiber rods. I’ve only ever bought a steel rod for my SiCO 762 LBP for my AKs, and typically never want to spend the money on alignment rods ever.
However, with free shipping, a free “dope” card when you add the rod to the cart and all at $25, I figured I might as well get a 5.56/.22 alignment rod. I ordered Wednesday and just got it today so shipping was really fast.
.22/5.56 6mm .30/7.62 9mm .45 acp Others available

why not just use a wooden dowel?

Wood warps
I'd bet most off the shelf wooden dowels @ .223 aren't going to seem perfectly straight if you were to give them a simple roll test

These work great. Though be warned a barrel manufacturer will blame the rod and claim it’s not accurate enough.

So tell us, what tool do you buy to check the alignment of your alignment rods? And what tool do you buy to check the alignment of that?

A micrometer calibrated by a standard tradable to NIST. Chuck the rod up and rotate it, and take the TIR reading at the other end of the rod.

The barrel manufacturer told me I needed a precision ground steel rod.

Buy? Just roll it on a flat surface like piece of glass

I have three of these but they’re “blend”. Don’t have to worry about bent rods. No issues on the 5 guns I’ve used these on.

This is kinda dumb but I also actually liked the little plastic case it came in because it can fit my other alignment rod rather than having it roll around in my toolbox.
