- 1:1 Exact Replica (externally) of the most widely issued Vietnam Era Silencer with modernized proprietary internals and Floating/Sealed back cap for ease of installation - 30 Decibel sound reduction over an unsuppressed M16
- Designed to be used on 20" .625 "Skinny" USGI M16 style barrels
- FITS 14.5" Colt Carbine barrels found on the recent Bowman Kits
- USGI & New H&R 20" barrels work perfectly
- *Brownells 20” barrels are functional, but the threaded shoulder is approximately 1/8” too long compared to USGI-spec dimensions. This may affect suppressor indexing on the bayonet lug, a competent gunsmith can easily turn the barrel shoulder to proper USGI spec if desired.
- *Alternatively, we will be offering an optional Brownells-specific rear cap to accommodate the extended shoulder length. This part will be available within ~3 weeks and can be ordered separately so the silencer can be used on any barrel. See add for back cap by clicking here
- 14.5" .625" pencil barrels - will require shimming/fitting - we will circle back to this later, we currently don't advise this unless you are mechanically inclined.

Great suppressor
Very quiet and it seemed to actually tighten up groups from my M16A1 clone. Cases eject right a 3 o'clock on a standard rifle setup. Very fun and pleasant to shoot. Of course it looks the part, too.

Total dream to shoot.
Love the look, love the function. Exceedingly easy to fit and maintain. Paired this with a gas buster and went to town. Unique sound profile and very comfortable feel when in use. Can't recommend enough. Chris has been beyond communicative and helpful when addressing any questions from this first-time user.

IMC-HEL E4A
Not too often does someone take the time and care to pain-staking reproduce a niche historical product like this. The attention to detail to the original 1960s design is unmatched. It doesn't add much to the OAL of a 20" M16A1 type rifle and the tone of the suppression is nice. I wish more companies were willing to reproduce cool historical suppressors like Chris has done here.

HEL E4A Suppressor
This is what a high quality reproduction suppressor should be. Excellent fit and finish, it's a brand new suppressor that doesn't look out of place on a 50 year old rifle. Mounting is simple/straightforward, sounds nice, looks great. Literally couldn't ask for more.
