I know I need the 1/2x28 LCD for my Lone Wolf Glock 23 barrel. My question being, can I shoot the LCD on other fixed barrel firearms like a 9mm AR15 or do I need to purchase the 1/2x28 Fixed mount? Will shooting the LCD on fixed barrel firearms damage the LCD?

It will work on other guns, but I've not done it a bunch.

MY concerns would be two fold - gunking it up (which can be cleaned) and weakening the springs. But I really don't think either are major worries.  But then, isn't a fixed mount like about $60?

An ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure.

From my research, it is not recommended that an LCD be used on a fixed barrel. Damage can occur.

+ on that.  I don't think it is advisable to use a LCD with a fixed barrel.

This is a case where you'll be better off in the long run by just going with the Trident fixed barrel mount.

Thanks everyone.
Sounds like the $60 is worth it.

The LCD on a fixed barrel could possibly damage the gun, suppressor or both. You're better off using the .5x28.
Major Malfunctions probably has some, and if not, we have some in stock. Let us know if we can help any further.

Think "dent puller"  or "dead blow hammer".   You need the fixed mount.
