    It's either 1/2" x 28 tpi, or 5/8" x 24 tpi.

    Unless someone did it after it left the factory. If it was threaded in Europe it might be metric.

    Snipereye, just so you know, your Model 12 is actually part of Model 10/110 family, not the Axis. You’ll get more views posting future questions concerning your ring in the forum section my friend.

    Yeah, I didn’t even think of that when you asked. Being your over there in “Not America”, it could very well be metric I suppose. Funny… here in the US, we use SAE/Metric hand in hand. Many of us can switch the sizes on the fly, back & forth. No big deal. But it’s almost like Europeans are allergic to using SAE! I’ve watched Britts & Germans treat treat SAE like the PLAGUE or something! It’s terribly fascinating & utterly retarded phenomena, all at the same time.

    Some of the UK still follows Imperial sizes as well, so anything can be a mixed bag.

    Just as bad as cars these days. Metric engines and sae frames or vice versa.

    Have had stuff made in China that had metric and sae fasteners.

    If you want complicated try working on old sewing machines. The mfgs made up their own sizes for just about everything.

    "moderator" are you referring to a muzzle brake or a noise suppressor ? This is for my own knowledge. As to your question , the last number indicates TPI or threads per inch if they are SAE , just count the threads, no help on metric
