Looking for XM177 style shroud

[Mr. Finicky Timbers]

I'm thinking have putting together a XM177 clone and was wondering if there exists a XM177 style flash hider/shroud that goes over a 14.5in barrel to give it the appearance of a 10 or so inch barrel?

Bushmaster makes/made something like that, but it isn't a shroud. it just threads on like normal flash hider. I believe it's 5.5" long. To get the look you want you would have to put it on a 11.5" barrel.

The actual XM177 muzzle device is classed as a suppressor, you'll need to find an aftermarket non-suppresor copy.

DPMS make a slipover M177 Flash suppressor , it extends back over the barrel
But , I believe it's for a 16" barrel .

This right here, that's what I'm looking for. I figured they'd probably be made for 16" barrel.

That would be cool looking but a lot depends on price

Just finished my retro build but have a 11.5" barrel, this flash hider was hard to find got it from the US for 25.00 off Ebay. The 6 hole handguards, pistol grip, and metal sliding stock took months to find, I did install a quick release sling adaptor while not correct it is handy.
