Well sure. And how can you attach a supressor to a post-94-ban AR with no bbl threads??? Staple it?
The same way anyone else gets a brake attached to their rifle in MA: have one with a QD suppressor mount pinned and welded.Well sure. And how can you attach a supressor to a post-94-ban AR with no bbl threads??? Staple it?
WAT? Did something happen today?Forget it AR's now banned in Mass. This will never pass.

I would say pin and weld a a break with suppressor adapter. Is that technically a threaded barrel?
They are not just for AR's.
a direct impingment AR is probably one of the less optimal platforms for switching between unsupressed and surpressed. a piston system is preferable but a bolt action is probably the simplest and most reliable system. no gas issues to deal with it. the ruger american ranch in .223 and .300 blackout (comes stock w threaded barrel) is incredibly popular for this reason.
one of the things that keeps me from doing more hunting is shooting without hearing protection. it just sucks. after a turkey hunt i can't hear for at least 12h, sometimes more. if supressors were available to me I would be outfitting a bolt action or possibly shotgun mostly for hunting purpose.
After being in my last rifle class where 3 guys were running cans on full power 5.56, I would not call them useless. Mitigating muzzle blast is an important function when it's happening a couple feet from your head. I also learned to hate just a little the people running aggressive brakes. Depends entirely on what you expect that suppressor to accomplish.
I believe that he was referencing "real world" applications not target practice. The ballistic properties of a suppressed 5.56 are roughly equal that of a .22 LR. For range use, cans have a huge advantage.

I should have been more specific.
Standard power .223 is certainly useful. But its not hearing safe without muffs.
Subsonic .223 is useless. Its not even good at punching paper at rifle distances and it won't cycle the action.
