Does anyone make a suppressor that fits over the 16" barrel of a Semi-Auto?

As much as I would like to go thru the Legal process to make one, I know that I would get a better product if I bought one. Thanks.

Not really sure what you're asking. I've got a YHM stainless Phantom in 7.62 that has a QD system - I've installed YHM flash hiders (with the QD threads) on my AR, FAL, and custom Mosin target rifle and it works fine. There's a suppressor for pretty much any application.

Here's the can on the Mosin:

And here's a close-up of the QD hider I have on the Mosin:

The QD hiders on my FAL and AR are more like a comp than a hider, but they're essentially the same in that they allow one can to be used across a variety of rifles/calibers. So far I've shot 7.62x54R, 7.62 NATO, and 5.56 NATO through the can and it's been wicked awesome.

i think he wants a integrated suppressor there's some uppers like that . i think most are pistol cal . gemtech makes a 9mm one. i think it is a sbr upper

Thanks for the Reply. But I guess that you are NOT that familiar with the Semi-Auto UZI. But it has an unnaturally long barrel to prevent it form being considered a Short Barreled Rifle. Note the Picture. Compare that to the Full-Auto/SBR version.

Nobody makes a can that will slide over that barrel. You are SOL.

Numerous problems with that possible design limit the can's effectiveness (ie 'slipover' = gasses start venting at the muzzle, and if the can slides over the barrel, you would have to direct the gas rearwards, giving up the vast majority of your sound silencing effect.).

You *might* get lucky and find someone who will permanently attach a can to a standard barrel (10"), but good luck with that. Also if you go this route, be sure to use a SEMI barrel in your SEMI Uzi.

Also your original post was really vague- just because you post it on Uzitalk doesn't mean everybody is thinking you're putting it on an Uzi. You did post it in the suppressor section and didn't specify anything other than slipping it over a 16" barrel (lots of guns have 16" barrels).

I think most people know what you are talking about regarding the semi-auto Uzi. What is not clear is what you actually want to do. What does "slides over the barrel" mean? Do you mean an integral suppressor?

david saylors at liberty suppressors once made a buddy of mine a "one piece barrel/suppressor" thing for his non-sbr'ed semi auto uzi.
not sure if he does custom stuff like this much any more.
when you took the barrel off, the suppressor came with it. so was essentially a pinned on suppressor, but intentionally built that way.

its about 2/3 of the way down the page here:

Thanks. That's the kind that I am looking for.

I'm actually very familiar with the Uzi carbine and the SBR issue. But thanks for the condescending reply. LOL You can avoid that sort of vagueness next time by actually being remotely specific about what you're trying to do.

Why not just SBR it and buy a can to add to it? Its only $400.

Yes, there were several companies that made an "over the barrel" suppressor such as LaFrance Specialties, Surefire and Advanced Armament. The most extreme of the was the LaFrance M4 which was made to slide over an M4 profiled barrel about 5-6"s. I have a couple of these at the shop. Older design but very cool. The others use a mount that cantilevers back over the barrel about 2.5"s. Ironically both AAC and Surefire have discontinued that design.
As far as an over the barrel suppressor for a 16" UZI I've not seen anything. Like others have said, SBR it and buy a regular Uzi can.

Hi,

God 'ol JAC made an Uzi can that used a perforated 16" barrel. At first it was a head scratch as to why he did that until you consider a S/A carbine is legal with this can and the OAL of the Uzi is just like a SMG. I've shot the can. It works. Not as quiet as modern designs but you sure will never get a baffle strike with it either

Good luck with your search,
