Here's a few Phantoms which, when permanently attached, take a 14.5 inch barrel beyond the minimum required by BATFE. The Vortex accomplishes the same goal of legality and some folks prefer them to the Phantom series. I have and prefer the 4 slot forked Phantom because I don't do much prone shooting with my M4gery. YMMV.
YHM.net has Phantoms HS1 |

I still don't understand. If I measure my mini y comp it is 2.5" long, from end to lock washer. The bbl is 16.1". So if the y comp is cut off, is the barrel salvaged from underneath the sucker?

Yes. KKF removed my Mini Y and replaced it with a 4 slot forked Phantom perm. attached.
ADCO has a quicker turnaround time, but in fairness to KKF, my M4A3 upper is flawless. HS1 |

Thanks. Deciding who to send it to will be a tough one.

Another option is to get a Gemtech Bi-Lock installed, then if the mood strikes at a later date you can use a M496D supressor.

Prior to all the M4 madness, I had KKF change a BM 14.5" M4 barrel w/AK brake to one of his own long flash hiders. Very nice work.

I want it to look as close to the M4 as possible. I also want it to be right on the mark of 16" if at all possible.

What method do you guys use to permanantly attach them?? ____________________________________ The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you are already dead.

The Phantom 5C2 is the shiz-nit.
Excellent flash hiding properties, low dust signature, compensation, and scary pointy things.

Just curious, will they sell just the BiLock to lowly civilians. I have a weakness for sweet looking muzzle devices, even if I cannot use them for their intended purpose.

KKF makes one called the mil-spec wich is a birdcage the same legnth as the phantom.I dont know how much of a gap it would make but the difference in legnth between a 14.5 and birdcage and legnth legality is 1/8 of an inch so maybe you could have a smith use a 1/8 steel disc same diameter as the barrel and then permanetly attach a regular birdcage.Brownells has the new 5 port phantom/comp from YHM for $21+shipping..the cheapest I have seen yet.

Not to rob the thread but I have a couple questions for ADCO. Your pricing, for $85 Dollars you can take my break off and attach a phantom with the teeth, is the break included in the price? Second I have a bushmaster do I have to add $56? There will be no problem with reliability or accuracy just possible minor scratches? And for additional $67 dollars I can have my front sight tower swapped for a good one with no accuracy problems just minor scratches that I can dub up with a paint pen. Last I know you’re busy but when I call with my credit card we can have a receipt dated for that day?
Thanks for time |

I like the Vortex. Three of my personal rifles have them on the end of 14.5 inch barrles. My work rifle has a Phantom on the end of a 14.5 M4 barrel.
Here are some pics.  This barrel started out as a 16 inch LW. I sent it off to KKF and had him cut it to 14.5 and pin the Vortex on it.  C8gery with a Vortex.

Will one of the slip-over car supressors take a 14.5" out to the legal 16" ??
Thanks, Steve |
