Those little rubber earplugs are about $1.69. Cup type hearing protectors can be had for as little as $10 online.

I don't know anything about rifle sound suppresors or if there is even such a thing for an AR. I'm sure someone has built it. You would have to get a license for it $$$.

Suppressors are available and can be had for around $300 plus the $200 transfer fee.They'll make it as quiet as a .22LR, but it ain't cheap.

don't have the funds for a suppressor  was hoping there was a way to extend the barrel  and not everything else  an 18 0r 20 barrel that would use the same hand guard and sight setup that would not add toooo much weight
