Custom ar barrel extension

Hi.I’m new to the forum. I am building a custom ar in 45acp. I am looking at placing a Thompson smg finned barrel on a .458 upper. Does anyone know of a barrel extension with the acme threads that would fit the barrel or someone too modify it to fit. Or do I have the barrel end modified to fit the extension. I am now retired with no access to machines like I use to. I have not found a Thompson style finned barrel that is plug and play. I am also going to fit both the rear and forward hand grips to enhance the look. I tell my wife these are adult Lego kits. (She doesn’t buy into it). Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks,

It would probably be easier, and not any more expensive to have someone make a finned barrel to fit your upper.
Green Mountain sells .45 barrel blanks, and since the Thompson was a blow-back action, there are already blow-back bolts available off the shelf.
CNC makes a .45 lower that accepts M3 Grease Gun mags.
