Answered by Armando R., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 24, 2021

It will not as the bore diameter is much too narrow as this is meant for a .223/5.56 platform. You will need to find a muzzle device that has the appropriate bore diameter or that is listed specifically for a 9mm with 1/2x28 threading.

Q
Vincent, guest, from NJ, United States, asked on March 31, 2021

Is their enough internal clearance to put this on a 9mm barrel with 1/2 x 28 threads?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Brandon B, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on October 14, 2021

HERA makes a separate part for the 9mm bullet. The HERA rifle line comps are not big enough for a 9mm bullet to pass through.
