Made it for my Scar 17 and put an adapter on one of my 5.56 ARs to try it out as well. Usually I'm into direct thread, but figured it would be fun to try a flashhider mounted can on the Heavy.
    Here's the SDTA "thread protector" as they call it along with the SDTA muzzle brake. This is a steel can, the Ti can (once approved) is a direct thread 1/2-28 for the wife's AR.

    I can't guarantee that it isn't that.. It's definitely worth investigating.

    Is there a can I can buy that I can mount on my .308 bolt gun AND my 6.8 SPC II, AND my 5.56? or will I need to get different sizes for different cal?
    Direct thread-on? Not unless you rethread at least one of your barrels.

    If you use a QD can with the same muzzle break on each gun then yes, a .308 can will do just fine.

    My drive was an hour instead of 30 minutes. Not too bad. Roads were certainly drivable. The people are always the problem. Where the fuk are these people from? Swaziland
