But my emails must not be getting through. I’d really like to put in an order for m24 cans for a batch of A2’s that were built. Thanks. Talk to you next week. |

Here's mine, which is one from that batch that @Samson-Dogg mentioned. Still needs a few things before I call it done, but i'm loving it so far.
Luckily was able to snag an M24 (11/16x24) can from the most recent batch.   |

It may be a broomstick, but the M24A2 has to be the single best looking rifle issued by the US. Perfect mix of classic and modern there!

I've been looking through this thread for a few days, and there are just so many pages so I apologize in advance if this has been answered previously.
I love how these suppressors look. I was going for a Blood Diamond inspired build with my C7 upper that I have (just got my 10.5 barrel). Now I'm debating whether I want to do that, or add a suppressor instead. I know for the AEM5 it's a 12.5 barrel. What would my options be for a Ballistic Advantage Modern series 10.5 government profile barrel. I would ideally like to keep my A2 post if I can (even if I have to shave the bayo lugs a little). I was looking at the adapters on the AE website, but I'm new to this idea and was getting lost easily. Thanks again, Lige |

I was looking at the adapters on the AE website, but I'm new to this idea and was getting lost easily. Thanks again, Lige Welcome to the forums. Your best bet would be to buy a longer carbine length barrel. Preferably longer than 12.5” if you can, but I believe shops like ADCO and D Wilson can make a 12.5” work for the correct profiling. ADCO profiled and built my NSW clone and did an awesome job. But that’s not your only option. There is a company that makes an adapter but I certainly won’t recommend them in this thread because of the owner’s attitude towards Ron. Seriously, even though this is an option, it’s best to get the longer barrel and have it done right. You’re playing with too many variables there especially with a Ballistic Advantage barrel. Nothing wrong with BA, but I wouldn’t trust the threads being concentric from the factory. You can either keep the barrel you have and use it for a different upper or try and sell it on the Equipment Exchange on this site. |

If im ordering an aem5 but don't have my spr barrel yet, do I need to wait for the barrel before ordering a brake and collar or are they going to be universal for spr barrels?

I’m not super familiar with this. So, if one buys a WOA SPR barrel is it as simple as installing the collar at a step and tightening the screw? Then install muzzle device and you can run an AEM5? No need to send it off for profiling? |

Just need a custom collar from Ron. Ran a 12.5 barrel from BA for good while before I sold the setup. And I agree about staying away from Otter Creek. No one knows how long his knock off will hold up. |

If it doesn’t work out to get enough turns, a custom collar is $40. |
