Would prefer to not have to send it off somewhere, but will if needed. Using peel washers or a proper spacer is what KAC says to use for supressor mounting. Even though crushwashers are used in the .mil. For warranty purposes, using peel/ washer/shims/proper spacer is the best. Per Nefarious Arms (one KAC authorized place to make the spacers to bring the 14.5 + NT4 to 16") the spacer or stacking peel washers is fine for warranty purposes(something that provides even support all the way around the NT4). ADCO is also a good place, I would assume. With that said, I am using peel washers, but still am debating if I should have it pinned or if I should 1000* silver solder it? ![]() |

Is the ECOS-N still the Comp M2, or did it get upgraded to the Comp M4, similar to how the M68 CCO went from being the Comp M2 to the Comp M4?
