M4/CQBR Clone, too soon to be retro?

[albatrossarmament]

Again guys, thanks for your help. In regards to the BE Meyers being used...I am guessing these were not suppressor compatible? And if not, they must have been dedicated short barrels, preferring the compactness over noise discipline? This is a very interesting direction, and I was always assuming I would use the KAC NT4, but the BE Meyers gives me another possible option depending on exactly which variant (of the CQBR) I end up with.

Correct, no suppressor option to my knowledge for the BE Meyers muzzle device. I would go with the NT4 and the QDSS suppressor, which is what I did personally.

There is an adapter that they made for a bit that would allow the use of an NT4 with the BE meyers. IIRC one of the guys in the mk18 thread on TOS has one. I remember reading that Surefire mounts were licensed from them at some point too.

Surefire licensed the technology from BE Meyers for their flash hider. You can not attach a Surefire suppressor to the BE Meyer flash hider.

I would go with a NT4 and QDSS can, or a Surefire 3 prong and SOCOM 5.56 can.

There was a NT4 compatible BE Meyers flash hider in use on the Mk18 Mod 0 guns. Most of them were marked "Prototype". I had one and sold it a while ago.

Now that is cool! First I've seen one of those, and I follow the 1000+ page MK18 thread over on AR15 religiously. Maybe I will come across one for sale some day.

Very, very neat. I'm guessing these didn't see much action/use in the hands of those in the field. Guys, I've got parts arriving for this build almost daily. On the charging handle, can I roll with stock or do I need to drop the dime on the PRI unit?

They do offer their latches separately if you did not want the whole thing.

The PRI M84 Gas Buster is the clone correct choice.

The latch is not the real purpose for the PRI Gas Buster, the name says it all. The M84 is designed to put less gas in the operators face when shooting suppressed. The latch won't provide this function.
