I have a RRA 9MM AR Upper that has of a 5" Tros 3-Lug Barrel and Daniel Defense 7.0 Rail. My Trident9 sits inside of the rail and attaches using a 3-Lug Mount.
I would like to shoot the upper without having to install the suppressor every time. Does anyone have any suggestions in making a shroud that will lock onto the 3-Lug barrel and extend out past the rail? I do not want to fire the upper without having either the suppressor or fake suppressor/shroud attached to the barrel.

Your looking for a 3 lug type of flash hider or fake can that is how many inches to get it past the end of the hand guard ?

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
I had one of those for a shorty I built awhile back and the problem was the little button lever on the flash hider was hard to get to under the hand guard.sumkrnboy wrote:MP5/ 3 LUG Fake Suppressor-Barrel Extensions

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
That's basically what I am looking for. I will have to find out if the diameter of that fake suppressor will fit inside my rail.sumkrnboy wrote:MP5/ 3 LUG Fake Suppressor-Barrel Extensions

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
I'll have to take some measurements. I'd like to get a fake suppressor roughly the same diameter and length of my Trident.redtazdog wrote:I just reread you post again LOL

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
The fake suppressor is Ø1.25" and 8.5" or 9.5" long (depending on model). The SWR Trident is Ø1.375" and 6.6" long.Tango2249 wrote:I'll have to take some measurements.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
The Trident with the 3-Lug mount attached is about 8.25" long, so the MP5/3-Lug Standard model (8.5") should be the ticket.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
Purchase a 3 lug trident mount and have a extension made to fit it.
Should be easy to make

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
This....I am trying to find someone that will make an extension that will screw onto my 3 lug mount since I figured that should be easy. Problem is I have had guys quoting me way more than I wanna pay. I have no plans of paying $100+ for something that is nothing more than a bar of aluminum with a hole through the middle and threaded on one end.redtazdog wrote:Purchase a 3 lug trident mount and have a extension made to fit it.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
Investment Grade Firearms also makes a fake suppressor for a 3-Lug Mount.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
What extension length do you need to add to the 3 lug mount to get what is needed ? Ø1.375" and 6.6" long.Wahoo95 wrote:This....I am trying to find someone that will make an extension that will screw onto my 3 lug mount since I figured that should be easy.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
redtazdog, where did you get a SS 3 lug?
If it doesn't splatter, shatter, burst or explode, it's not worth shooting.
Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
I made a few SS barrels with with the 3 lug instead of threads.strobro32 wrote:redtazdog, where did you get a SS 3 lug?
This one had the 3 lug and 1/2x28 threads until I found the threads got too dirty.

Re: Shroud For 3-Lug Barrel
What ever happened with this?
I am in the same situation. my 5 inch 3lug barrel is recessed inside my 7 inch rail and I would like to be able to use this gun without the suppressor occasionally (ie when the suppressor is on another firearm) without mucking the rail and/or my hand.
