Holy cow!
@green0 can you help me confirm if this is a “drop in” solution for for a 16” ballistic advantage midlength upper?

The bayonet mounts will go on any barrel with a 3/4” gas block and .79” of unobstructed barrel rear of the thread shoulder.
They will only permit bayonet mounting on barrels that would take a bayonet before. Aka 14.5” govt m-4, or m4A1, 16” HK IAR, 20” A2,3,4. Thats a spatial length arrangement issue of the lug needing to be a correct distance to the thread shoulder.
The mounts essentially make a reflex K can out of whatever you mount them to. That means they make the cans shorter in their mounted configurations, a few db louder with more muzzle flash in the suppressor attached configuration. We make the bayonet mounts in single port brakes and flash suppressors.
The single port brakes will help flash suppression and noise suppression of the mounted cans remain more optimal.
The recce 5 has less loss of performance with the bayonet mount than dual lok tubeless cans due to baffle characteristics.
The bayonet mounts are long internally so you have to pay attention to that with some of the plan A combinations as you still need the device to fit inside the can to be useable. The compact HRT is too short internally to fit the bayonet flash suppressor but the brake will work for example. We have a special military model that is longer that will take the bayonet flash suppressor. It was produced in sample qty only for demonstration purposes and is essentially a technology demonstrator. So its lack of availability is not reflective of our withholding it from anyone.
For training purposes the flash suppressors feature a BFA groove for std affordable blank firing adapters and USGI insight bore sight collimator compatibility is retained.
Our M4-SD series is also compatible with bayonets. We have made a new closed tine flash suppressor for those that is also compatible with a std issue BFA, and the bore sight collimator, and has a three position wire/ rebar cutter on the muzzle end.The closed tine flash suppressor is also being made for taper mount and dual lok, but not currently in a bayonet compatible version. It does however accept the BFA in the dual lok 5.56mm version only. Bore sight collimator in both mount versions and both calibers 30 and 556.
