I'm looking for a new high quality barrel shroud for my IMI Model A (16.1" barrel). I don't know if I want a solid shroud, or a ventilated variation. I'm looking for something simple and cosmetic without impacting performance. I know that many of you have good experiences with vendors...

Now that I've looked at a few, I definitely like the vented shroud over the solid. I really like the double shroud that jt526 linked to. Ak43... Is yours the title arms vented with the interior heat shield?

Forum member JWH has some really nice ones made out of delrin. He is a good guy to deal with and makes 2 versions, one is a 2 stage type and the other is a single stage shroud. They were relatively cheap and won't damage the outer barrel surface.

AK43... Very nice. Is that a 2-stage? How well does that fit on a 16" Carbine (Model A)?

No, It's not a 2 stage . A two stage fake or real suppressor will be bigger around for the first 2,2&1/2's of the suppressor and the rest will be thinner. This is just a barrel shroudI cannot say for sure on how well it would fit. I do not know the outside dimensions of each barrel at this time. Here is a link from E&L. They make a skinny barrel look better

Here is a link to goolge page i brought up to show you a single and double stage can. Top can on left is double and 2nd line down where there are 2 cans laying side by side are what we call a single stage. Make since? Hope this helps

Hi Dodger, this is my first post here, although I've lurked as a guest awhile. I bought one, supposedly made by IMI, from Numrich Arms. looks good and am satisfied with it. It is advertised in the "Miscellaneous" section of ACtion Arms parts. Here's the link: http://www.gunpartscorp.com/Products/593970.htm

I'm honored that you came to my assistance with your first post. Thanks for the link... that's the best price I've seen on the vented shroud!
