Would it be legal for someone to permenatly attatch a say 5" fake supressor to an 11.5" barrel thus creating an overall barrel length of 16.5" without registering as a SBR or breaking the law with regard to the AWB. Also where can these fake scilencers be purchased??

Yes, you can attach a 5" suppressor to an 11.5" barrel to make a length of 16.5" and that would be legal.  But I don't know if they make fake suppressors or fake silencers that are that long.  Maybe they do but I don't know where to get them.

Thanks NP
I would really like that long supressor look, but if you can't find them that long what lengths do they come in?  Also to permanatly attatch does it need to be welded, if so have any of you had expience getting welders to do the work for you?

Proably the best thing to do if you want to go that route is to buy one already attached to the barrel or upper such as this one from Bushmaster. (note: this is for a preban only)

If you want to buy the upper receiver or barrel seperately from the suppressor, then I would recommend someone like [url=http://www.kurtskustomfirearms.citymax.com/page/page/8932.htm]Kurts Kustom Firearms[/url] to install it.

Thanks guys
Thats a great idea about sliding it over the barrel to reduce volocity loss.

Ask Kurt from Kurt's Custom Firearms.  I think he makes the Fake Flash Suppressors he sells.  http://www.kurtskustomfirearms.citymax.com  He might make one special like you want.

No actually I was talking about using a fake sound supressor not flash hider. I have seen the fake MFI unit and thought about having it welded on but I was still wondering if there was something else out there.
