Hey Guys,
I tried searching this but I have come up with nothing so please be gentle... Hopefully at a minimum someone has thought of this, tried it and didn't succeed. Even better would be someone crafty enough that made it work.
I've been looking at flash suppressors with external threads that allow for easy mounting of a sound, or in Canada...a mock suppressor on an M14. Is there any scientific reason that the outside of the existing flash suppressor couldn't be threaded to allow a mock suppressor to be spun on or grooved to accept one like the AAC Blackout? Perhaps there isn't enough meat on it? Don't know, but after looking at certain functional suppressors, it seems to me that the internals of them are not that fundamentally different. I am a carpenter...not a gunsmith and know my limits when it comes to metalwork...like sharpening a chisel. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the concept.
Cheers
