Suppressors Help with EBR SOCOM 16 SILENCER!!

[reaper3bravo]

Im making an ebr with a socom 16 and a sage mod 1 stock. I want to put an advanced armament cyclone can on it but it seems the aac teeth on all their muzzle devices will come in contact with the gas plug below the barrel. Does anyone know what i can do it simply will not work with a smith enterprise gas block and i refuse to stray from advanced armament. would it work if i went with a scout squad instead?

The Scout barrel is 1.75" longer than the 16.25" SOCOM barrel and should provide enough clearance.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: reaper3bravo</div><div class="ubbcode-body">major differences between the two rifles? besides the stocks which dont matter anyways </div></div>The Scout, Bush and MK14 use an 18.0" barrel that accepts all M14 muzzle devices, just don't use one with a bayonet lug because it interferes with the gas plug. The military MK14 Mod 0 and Mod 1 are set-up to use suppressors.
The SOCOM uses a proprietary muzzle device that needs to be replaced with parts from SEI before using a suppressor. Currently, there are no 16.25" military M14s, but SEI is building 500 for a particular ARMY unit and the will run SEI suppressors and SEI's SOCOM gas plug.
The 16.25" SEI barrels are standard weight with 4 grooves and a 1:10 ROT.

I hope that helps.

You are very welcome.

I use the M14DC SEI/Fisher suppressor and I have no reason to regulate the gas.
A different suppressor may require a gas system modification.
