I personally would recommend the CRS. It's a great suppressor and it's a good size for a lot of dual role SR25 applications.

Found these numbers in an old thread. Apparently straight from the man Jack himself.
PRS 142db 20.8 oz 9.24" QDC ??? CRS 148db 15.8 oz 6.52" CQB 156db So basically 6db, 5oz and 2.75". They say 140db is "hearing safe" so the PRS is almost there. I know that is completely subjective but it’s something. My AEM5 is the only can I’ve shot that doesn’t ring my ears and I thought I read somewhere that is 136db. Of course this 5.56. |

Anyone know the military history / designation, anything about the SR25 Match? I’ve read it was deployed to Somalia (around that time).
I’ve seen pictures of it suppressed. Where does it fall in with the Mk11 and it’s cousins? This rifle is the one with the 24 inch unthreaded barrel, threaded gas block. |

The Knight's SR25 in its original 24" barrel mode made its bones in Somalia back then. After action reports by these special operators wanted it shortened to 20" to reduce its overall length with suppressor attached. This we did.
This led to what we called the Special LW Match. That led to the Mk11 format. That led to the M110. By the Mk11 Mod 0 time we had shown enough other companies how to do it, the knockoffs began to proliferate. Our inability to meet our military demands also prevented us from being able to adequately address the commercial side which the knockoffs capitalized on. Same thin happened with the free float RAS's practically to a "T" except they made it a bit oval in cross section...highly imaginative... |

Leading to the Special LW Match. What did the LW stand for? Just curious. Those LW rifles had a 20 inch barrel and gas block attached suppressor? Is that correct? Anything else you can share about that specific platform? I’m going to buy another SR25 Match. I simply like the extended barrel and the history. The current models are amazing as well, but I like the Match versions more. To each their own, right? |

You asked:
@coldblue Thanks for information, for sure. For a little clarification. Did the SR25s with the 24 inch barrel in Somalia have a specific scope? Did the rifle have a specific military designation? Example, if I clone it, did it have a designation? I recall a Leupold 10x target scope. I think with tall target turrets. Leading to the Special LW Match. What did the LW stand for? Just curious. Light Weight. Only because it was lighter than the 24-inch match rifle. It was still pretty heavy. Those LW rifles had a 20 inch barrel and gas block attached suppressor? Is that correct? Yes. Precursors to the Mk11Mod0 format and sound suppressor interface. Early, early ones retained the match's round fiberglass forend, then someone asked for little Picatinny rail sections to be added to the end of the forend. I think you can guess that we did next, seeing how we were making the M4 RIS's at the time... KAC still make the little Picatinny sections. They are part of the StandAlone Buttstock assembly. I mean if someone wanted to replicate something...just saying... Anything else you can share about that specific platform? |

I picked up another SR25 Match, and the gas block was changed out (so it appears).
No threaded gas block or gate latch gas block, so no way to attach a suppressor. Gah. Anyone know where I can buy a threaded gas block? Like this.  Attached File |

It's a good deal, but just know if your barrel is already drilled for a gas block, the chances of those lining up are slim.

This is my first post and am excited to announce that I found myself an old school SR-25 Match 24" - pre-ban or what not I do not know. Its mint condition and apparently only had 2 magazines worth of ammo fired through it.
Any idea how to tell the year of manufacture or is it based on the Serial Number? It has the old school Waffle type magazines I am already compiling myself a list of the parts that I "think">??? I want to convert - but as each day goes on I have been changing my thoughts! I am a proud owner of now (3) Knights products! SR-15 14.5 dimpled SR-15 11" urx 4 keymod type

Thought this would be a good thread to ask since relating to BR’s.
@ColdBlue regarding the OG photo attached below, can the Mk11 Mod 0 suppressor actually mate with the 16-inch BR’s? Or is the suppressor on the table a specific design similar to the limited run of EM carbine suppressors?  |

That secondary collar (nut) is removable, by pressing in the spring loaded detent and rotating the nut counter-clockwise. If it does not loosen easily, like with a strap wrench, I would recommend making a spanner that engages the cut-outs in the same manner as an M16 barrel nut wrench.

If memory serves me, that was a specially designed suppressor for that barrel length. Remembering that inside a Mk11 type suppressor is a close tolerance surface that interfaces with a close tolerance surface at the end of the barrel, or in this case the muzzle device, that would be the case here. I mean have you ever noticed that the very end of a Mk11Mod0 barrel is a different shade of black than the moly-coat on the rest of the barrel...?
