    5/8"x24 threads per inch is the pattern most commonly used by firearm and suppressor companies these days. I am not overly sure where Mooresville is off the top of my head, but I am sure you can find someone in your area to thread it for you.

    Indygunworks build both of my AR platforms, .223 and .308 the later shot a 3/4 MOA with a crappy trigger. He is on the east side of Indy (almost greenfield) and works for beer sometimes :D
