Unfortunately, we don't know what dimensions the threads are. However there are only 3 rings on the threads, we thought if by some odd chance it was a silencer they would have wanted more than 3 rings.

Well, here's a really far out guess...This may have been an initiator for a scuttling charge...

Screw the gun into a spigot attached to a 55 gallon drum of blasting powder, on board a ship...Use an incendiary round...Shoot it into the drum full of powder to destroy your U-boat before it can fall into enemy hands...

Hey, that's as reasonable as some of the BS I read on GB...

(Feel free to use this explanation in your sales description)...

Actually, that strengthens the Suppressor argument. Those puny threads would blow a BFA right out the front with a blank powerful enough to cycle the Luger action. Silencers don't need a lot of thread purchase, (look at the typical MAC10 threads, for example).
