ya anyone with a lathe can do one mate easy enough to do
any gun shop will get it done for ya but will screw ya
cut out a middle man and find any small company with a lathe its not a hitech job
to do

It was an original factory one, would steyr sell me one, seen some home made one looked horrible on the rifles, my one was flush to barrel

hard enough get another original one id say

whoever makes one for you ask them to not chamfer the edge at one end and this can be screwed up to barrel to make it look flush
can also e easily blackened
also was the original one knurled

I would say so, but it appeared to be the same metal as the barrel,though highly unlikely

Thank you, I am on duty over next three days, first chance I get ill measure up.
Was out in Tipp last Thursday stalking, took off cap at the car, my mate was yapping, put the cap on the roof(which I NEVER do) put on suppressor and drove away. That evening packing up , took off suppressor went to put on cap,no cap:eek:. Then I remember it on the roof, too late. I have a system how I do things and always conscious of the cap but that day. I am goin out to have a look about the area I drove off from,it is painted bright cream colour so one never knows:).may not be far away. Thank you for all the responses.

Its a service you will not get here in Ireland, charge you through the roof, or whinge it is too small an item to get,too hard,(too shagging lazy,can't screw you enough and wont make big bucks from it)
