I have an older 16” chrome lined barrel with an 13x1LH aac 51T flash hider.

Turns out surefire was the muzzle device I should’ve bought ten years ago. Any way to get one now?


Update 01Apr24: this is not an April fools joke: call surefire. They have them 714.545.9444

OST.

I may have a new one in the package in one of my parts box. No promises - I know it’s a 13x metric, just not sure which one.

Good luck. They pop up on gunbroker and here on the EE every once in a while.

Surefire would make them in really small batches and those really small batches would last them a long time, and when they’d eventually sell out it would take them ages to make another really small batch. Now that they’re discontinued it’s going to be even harder than it was when they were still in production.

Just be aware it's going to be expensive.

I had one that I sold about 6 months ago and it went for 300 plus!

I just tore apart the parts bins. I know I set it aside somewhere. I’m going back in tonight.

I don’t want you to get excited, I know its metric, I just can’t promise it’s 13x1LH

I don't have what you're looking for but if you do find it and want to dump your 51T, I'd be interested. I think my AUG M1s are all pre-1/2x28.

Deal.  I have a Silencerco Saker 51T mount as well if you're interested.

Is there a 51T hub mount?

If so the best option may be to get one of the hub compatible cans from spectercat.

Back when I had an original metric barrel my plan was to just cut it down and pin/weld a modern adapter.

A really good alternative worthy of consideration would be having adco do the thread repair service and change your threads to half by 28.

Given the price and availability of 13x1 left hand muzzle devices versus the price and availability of half by 28 muzzle devices you might actually come out ahead or at least break even and have more options.

Edited: Not enough meat as 13mm is .512”. <— Not sure about this, was just winging it when I previous posted as I don’t know the thread specs. It’s hard for me to imagine it could be done cleanly based on the diameter and 13.5mm thread specs as seen at the following.

Shorten, pin and weld would be an option though.

When I spoke to them about it they said they had done it before IIRC.

I’ll defer to you and edited my post above in case I’m mistaken.

Ive considered that option but i don't want to mess with this barrel since you can’t get chrome lined ones anymore.

I went through all my parts bins, top to bottom, with no luck. It sucks because I can picture where it used to be, but I reorganized last year and must have set it aside somewhere.

I will eventually find it, probably the day after you decide to re-thread your barrel.

Thanks for trying.  I've had parts vanish like that too, although not nearly as precious.

Maybe I'll bump this thread occasionally and see if anyone out there has one.

Does surefire even make them anymore?  They're totally out of production, right?

Bump (is this allowed?) still looking for one.

I listed an SF AUG muzzle brake in the EE.
