Thread protectors

Is there a source for barrel thread protectors?
I am looking for a threaded steel type in 1.125 x 16 ( Bat M )
Thanks

John: I've been using the rubber foot pads that are available for the tube legs on kitchen stools. The inside diameter on the ones I have are 1" and they fit over the barrel threads on my Remington, Panda, Bat, etc. threaded barrels.

They provide excellent protection for all my switch-barrels, at a cost of less than $1.00 each, available at almost all hardware stores.

Sinclair has threaded delrin barrel caps, described as fitting Stolle, Nesika, Bat, Viper, but the thread size is 1/16" x 18 tpi, at $9.95 each.

I still prefer the rubber caps that provide plenty of protection, can be "screwed" on when new, or pushed on as they wear.
