Most 5.56 silencers use a special mount proprietary to each manufacturer.
You would remove the A2, then screw on the manufacturers mounting system.

If you cannot remove the A2 (like you live in a state that requires you or permanently mount the hider) there are a few silencers that mount to the A2 (Griffin Armament M4SD II for example)

I would, however, recommend that you look into getting a 7.62 (308) silencer. They will work on the 5.56 and you can use them on more rifles.

He SHOULD look at getting a 7.62. "NOT" should not be in there LOL!
It was supposed to say "look INTO getting a 7.62"

Good recovery. :mrgreen:
