Won't it be cool if all the gun and barrel companys started making guns and barrels with the same threads? That would be great if your upgrading your gun and want the same barrel. They really should do that. I hope this happens, will save you lots of money from buying the same barrel again just beacuse the threads are different on your new gun.

Yeah man, everyone with cocker threads, that's the way mos non blowbacks are going these days, and I think it'd just be easier to find the barrel you want if they were all the same threads

if these companys were really out to help us save money, they would all join together, make all guns practical, all threads the same, all o rings the same, all screws the same, all to please their loyal consumers but alas they are just thieving pigs out for our money...

Lapco makes adapters. They screw on to your cocker barrel or whatever and then into your spyder gun or whatever. They only cost like twenty bucks. But still I get your point. Theiving bast*rds!

How does not making threads universal make them more money, people will still buy the boomstick they wanted only they dont have to search for it for their gun, Smaller less popular Barrels may not make as much but any popular barrels using an universal thread would make just as much. Most of the time Identical barrels with different threads are about the same.

if you get a boomsick while you have a mag, and you like it, then you get a cocker and you want another boomer, that means you bought 2 boomers, but if you have thread x on gun y, then you put the thread x boomer on gun b, thats only 1 boomer bought
