Luger Flash suppressor

[John Sabato]

PIA is incorrect in its identification of this device. This is a bore guide for the cleaning rod. It possesses no design feature which would reduce or eliminate a flash, and merely extends the muzzle by a very short distance...

Old thread, but I suspect that this device was also used occasionally to provide for a barrel extension for a sound suppressor without modifying the Luger barrel. The front portion of the device only needs to be threaded to fit the suppressor.

I think this is one of those myths - and although there is a screw on, on the end, I don't believe it could be used for a suppressor.
