    Thanks! Oversight on my part. Was just too excited about the MAMS.

    Will pinning a 5.56 mams on an sr15 void the warranty like another manufactures muzzle device will?

    Since nobody else can make a comparison video I and a buddy will be soon. This is ridiculous. The shop I work at just got four in. I snagged one for myself.

    Please provide some insight on flash suppression capabilities compared to a standard A2 as a baseline if you can.

    Yes.
    Any alteration to the non-furniture parts not done by an armorer certified by KAC for the work performed, will technically void your warranty.

    What is the recommended procedure to get this done and who is a smith that can perform this and not void the warranty? Marvin Pitts? And will shortening to 14.5" and pinning void it?

    Hey dude, I got it mounted today and shot a buddy's SR15 with A2 back to back. The MAMS on a middy is like shooting a .22. It's crazy. The flash, from the shooters perspective is non existent. From a side profile it's there, but it's a red/orange glow compared to a flame or flash. Concussion is stiff, but not as bad as a PWS or SF MB. Ammo was 55 gr independence xm193. Barrel length on both was 16".

    We do not have anyone on the "approved" list for cutting a barrel, or for pinning and welding. We strongly recommend against cutting a barrel. There are reputable companies out there that can do a pin and weld if you want to go that direction, and done properly it should make no negative effect, however, if an issue arises, the company that made the alteration to the firearm as shipped will be responsible for getting your gun working again.

    ETA: If I really wanted to change something about the configuration that would void my warranty, I would check the system as delivered for a couple thousand rounds to make sure everything was good (and to ensure that I really needed said change and not just more experience on the gun), and make the change. KAC isn't going to turn its back on you for making an alteration, we simply won't bring it in and fix it for free. You can still get parts to make repairs (which will most likely be outside the 1 year warranty period anyway), and we will still help you with technical questions. KAC simply has to protect itself from those that don't know what they are doing and breaking guns by "fixing/upgrading" them.
