I was looking for some handguards and ran across suppressors for AR's. How do these fit on? I assume the flash hider serves a pupose by making the barrel legal by it being 16 inches. Does the suppressor go on over the flash hider or do you take it off? I think mine is permantly on the barrel (bushy A3) Thanks for any help with these questions.

Do you mean Sound Suppressors?  If so It depends on the type.  Some are designed to mount on a standard Flash hider, others use proprietary mounts that act as FH's when the can is off, others are simply threaded to mate with a bare threaded barrel.  Check the FA forum for more info.
