Am I able to place a suppressor onto a bushmaster varminter? Just a random question.

Well I was just wondering If I would be able to put it on it's heavy 24 inch fluted barrel. Like placement wise. Would I have to put an a2 flash suppressor. Am I even able to put an a2 flash suppressor on such a barrel?

You would need to get the barrel threaded first. After that, you could attach almost any suppressor you wanted.

What suppressor are you talking about in particular?

Any that take their own flash hider will work fine.(if you have the barrel threaded)

You mention of the A2 makes me think you are talking about a HALO? as far as that one goes you may need to have the barrel turned down some for the halo to go on

You'll want to check in the supressor section from now on HERE

But yes, it will need to be profiled if you want to use an Omni or HALO which use the A2 or any QD mounts.

You can get a thread on can too.  Just have your barrel threaded.

Ok so I will have to go to a gunsmith. Ok how much will that cost me? And I meant having a sound suppressor but I thought u had to have the a2 flashider with some kind of adaptor so you can put a sound suppressor on.

No, most QD cans will have their own FHs.  You may have been told it would need to be able to mount an A2 but it doesn't need the A2.

You could send it to ADCO (an industry partner) to have it threaded...
