Mods needed to run a suppressor on an AR

[dpoe]

I'm rather new to this site, as you can see from my post count, but I've been reading and visiting for quite a while.

I've been thinking about getting a suppressor, and I was wondering what all needs to be done (PRI gas-buster charging handle, etc?) to my AR to, I guess, prepare it for a suppressor. Also what are the purposes behind those changes?

thanks

You dont really NEED any modifications to run a suppressor but they can help. The PRI charging handle, I believe, helps disspate the extra gas that comes back through the system.

Maybe H and H2 buffers to see what cycles the best with the ammo you will be using.

Gasbuster CH may help or do the DIY gasbuster mod with rubber gasket maker like Todd from Noveske recommended to me.

I'm already planning on getting the Spikes T-2 Buffer, so that's good. So if I run my BCM charging handle, will gas spray all up in my face?

If you use the BCM you might find this mod helpful.

Very nice.

Since the gasket is quite exposed and subject to being slammed around a bit, how long might one expect this mod to last before a re-do becomes necessary?

oh wow. That's so simple, it's brilliant. Thank you for that link.

Are you talking about RVT Silicone or something else?


Good luck

Depending on the gun a heavier buffer might be beneficial. Other than that, I don't do anything different.
