Just a quick question does anyone know if the bushings on the above moderator are removable so you can easily change it for different thread pitches?

Yes
&
No
They ARE removable, BUT, only by Jackson Rifles!
He charges about £30 or so to change them - you need to send the mod. back to them.
They fit the new bushing (& keep the old one!!)
ETA: May be easier/cheaper to buy a thread adaptor. Got a couple from Brownells US for about $25 ea. Means I can use one mod. on several guns...

Ok thanks my friend has seen a used one for sale at £220 but in the wrong thread I guess with postage costs back and forth and the cost of the bushing he would just be better off buying new.
Thank you for your help.

Posted mine to them direct by Royal Mail for about £6 or so...
A bushing would be the better option

Plus the item would have to be sent by an RFD to Jackson Rifles, I fell into that trap last year when wanted the bushing changing RFD charge was too expensive paperwork and post, so I bought a new one with correct bushing.

...or NOT
Posting direct yourself is 100% legal as recipient is an RFD - I was told to do this by Jackson Rifles themselves
A couple of weeks back I mailed a S1 & a S2 shotgun to Kent using Royal Mail
Some RFD's will beg to differ, or blatantly lie & say otherwise, as they like the £35 per pop
"admin fee"!

Jackson Rifles asked me to provide the senders RFD number (spoke to them on the phone) and if not the same, another RFD's number that will accept the mod on it's return, I could not send it myself.
