I miscalculated the length of a stock and now if I assemble my rifle it will be 25.25". That’s with an extended A2 flash hider. So I am short .75". I cannot make the stock longer. The extended A2 I am using is 2.30", so I am looking for a 3" flash hider to have a non-nfa build.
My search for ‘3" flash hider’ brings up plenty of results for ‘3 prong flash hider’, but nothing for 3".
Anyone know who makes such an item?
This is going on a 22. I don’t mind if it’s a standard A2 pattern or something different, but I don’t want anything stupid like those vanity dragon head things…
Not a Frankengun and if I was trying to cheat the system I would have just left it as it is. It’s a Ruger 10/22 with a very nice Walnut wooden stock handmade for me by my brother-in-law in Germany. I guess I screwed up the calculations and had him make it a too short. So, I cannot modify the stock and I don’t want to add a buttpad to it. The barrel is a Volquartsen that cost me an arm and a leg. It’s threaded, but the intention was for a suppressor. When I realized how off I was on the length, I went to plan B, which is the flash hider. If I REALLY have to, I’ll replace the barrel, but at $450 I’m not that inclined to take a loss.
I will post some pictures this weekend (unassembled, of course…)
edit to add: Yes, I am aware this is M4C and I am asking about a 10/22. Please cut me some slack…
Is it a bullpup design? Or does it simply have a really short length of pull? The S&W MP15 has a long flash suppressor. I don’t know what your thread pitch is but I can dig up the flash suppressor from my 308 M&P-10 and send it to you. I’ll never use it again. It’s really long- and weighs about 4 oz. You could get an adapter made. Or get an adapter made that will extend the length of your A2 birdcage
