For this style, you would definitely want the shoulder or shims to be slightly in front of the end of the you please confirm which version of muzzle brake is the current design with rear wrench flats or without? Thanks!ĥ/8 x 24 muzzle brake does not have the pin & weld stand-off However, the rest of my muzzle brakes do not have wrench flats at the rear, which makes the rear of the suppressor sit almost dead even with the rear of the mount. I also have one 1/2"-28 muzzle brake with wrench flats at the rear, which would measure the same. The above measurements are for the Dead Air Keymount flash hider, which has the wrench flats at the rear of the mount. I don't have an actual Key-Mo adapter to measure, but if it's the same as the integral mount on the Sandman suppressors, the rear edge of the adapter should sit about 1/8" to 3/16" in front of the shoulder when mounted.Īs long as your shoulder is even with or very close to the end of your handguard, you should be fine. To me, it looks like the Keymo mount comes much farther back on the muzzle device than most, almost covering the wrench flats at the back.Ĭan anyone provide the distance measurement from rearmost point on the muzzle device, to the rearmost point of the mount when mounted? I know the Surefire open tine flash hider will push thier mount far enough out with just a “medium” sized shim, but that doesnt provide much reference unless i posess both mounts/muzzle devices.
None of my local dealers have a mount I could “try on”. Due to different generations in manfacturing, the. The Dead Air Key-Mo adapter can be used with most pistol caliber carbines and rifles. My question, finally, is how would I go about measuring for clearence between mount and forwad edge of the rail? I will obviously have to use a shim or two, but want to avoid having to use a whole damn shim pack to get the mount away from the rail. No longer only just a replacement for the SilencerCo ASR system, Dead Air's Key-Mo adapter can be utilized in suppressors from SilencerCo, CGS, Energetic Armament, YHM, and even on the Dead Air Nomad series. Obviously there isnt much room from front of the rail to front of the barrel. Barrel on the host will be 14” and the rail is one of the 13.5” MK16s from black friday. Looking to grab my first supressor, yay me!Īfter much research, I would really prefer to go with the Dead Air Keymo mount, most likely with a Vox K.
