Suppressing an M1A?

[AK74U]

Get a HK91 and suppress that and give us a range report.

Thanks for the feedback. i think i am going to move on down the list and skip over this project.

I was told when one of mine was getting worked on that it is not a good idea. He said that the op rod wasn't designed for the impact that a suppressor causes. It can be done; just not recommended by Steve E.

TheGman , I had to go with the expert on this one. He said if you want to suppress it, get an AR or bolt gun and enjoy it.

I tried it with a socom and talked to the SP law enforcement rep who tried to talk me out of the project. It was a no go. I opted for an FN FAR. My Mini 14 300 blackout was quiet with the can. I fired two subsonic without and three with the can and sounded like a 22 henry. Ruger did a good job making that rifle for suppressed use.

Subbed for more info. I have an OSS low backpressure can and have been wanting to try this as well. My plan involves a forged op rod from fulton armory at bare minimum and see what happens.
