Fake Silencers are also known as: Dummy Can, Faux Suppressor, Mock Silencer, Barrel Shroud & Non Functional Sound Suppressor.

These are designed for LIVE FIRING.

We test all our Fake Silencers on .308 (NATO 7.62 X 51) caliber a bolt action sniper rifle (SAKO TRG 22) for accuracy / to see if there is any projectile impact deflection (less than 0.25" at 200 meters) and finally on M4 / M16 and or PKM machineguns (500+ sustained rounds) to test stability under extreme firing, vibration and heat (no problems).

This Version of the MFI M4 Fake Silencer is Marked / Laser Engraved with the Navy Seal Logo.

This product is "UNIVERSAL" meaning that it can be used on almost any weapon with a threaded barrel and even some weapons without threads (Requires at least 4.5" of exposed barrel with the barrel O.D. being less than 0.750").

The MFI M4 Style Fake Silencer can be used to do either:

HIDE YOUR BARREL: 

EXTEND YOUR BARREL: 

This UNIVERSALITY is NOT Rocket Science. Everyone wants to make it more complex than it really is.

Basically the MFI M4 and SOCOM Universal Fake Silencers consist of 3 parts:

The Outer Body

The Adapter

Set Screws

THE OUTER BODY:

The Outer Body is solid and has a hole (0.750" I.D.) that runs from end to end. This diameter is a little larger than what is found on most .223 / (5.56) or 9mm caliber AR 15 barrels, which are normally @ 0.725" O.D. We originally designed these specifically for the AR-15 platform.

So the only LIMITING factor is Outer Diameter of your barrel. If your barrel's O.D is over 0.750" and you want to have the M4 Fake Silencer hide / slip over your barrel it can NOT be done.

If you want to EXTEND your barrel length there is NO LIMITATION at all.

What length of adapter you choose to use or whether you use an adapter at all depends on the final look that you want to achieve.

SET SCREWS & THE ADAPTER SYSTEM:

How this works is that no matter what your application is; you will receive the same outer body as you see in the above photos. All outer bodies have a 0.750" inch hole bored out from front to back.

In this hole slides your barrel and or the adapter which has a slightly less than 0.750" inch outer diameter. The inner diameter at the end nearest the front site will have a thread in it to accommodate your specific weapon (if you have a threaded barrel).

The inner diameter of the EXIT end for all adapters is 1/2 inch. So this 1/2" exit hole basically necks down the larger 3/4 inch diameter of the OUTER BODY down to a more believable exit hole for a silencer. The 0.50" hole also accommodates any caliber up to .45 ACP for safe and effective firing.

Both the outer body and adapter are finished in the same way to match 100% which give you a very clean finished look.

All outer bodies have a total of 12 set screws in them that are arranged in a 3 separate cross / star patterns. This pattern allows you to perfectly center your barrel (important only on smaller diameter barrels like 1/2 or so). These set screws (depending on the application / adapter used) will make contact with either the adapter only (ON THREADED BARREL APPLICATIONS ONLY, if you want to screw on and off the fake silencer like a real one) or they with make contact the barrel and adapter (like on a POST-BAN assault weapon or smooth barrel of a bolt action sniper rifle.)

A 5/64 allen key is required for installation.
