Your biggest mistake was buying G&P in the first place, who INTENTIONALLY does everything backwards to make sure you buy more G&P products. So if you absolutely wanted to keep the G&P suppressor (not recommended as the VFC one is significantly nicer), you would have to buy the G&P flashhider, but because that's CW thread, you'll have to replace your outer barrel with a G&P one as well.

See where we're going with this?

Well shit..... lol. My original thought was that the G&P one would work as it says on the Redwolf link in my previous post that its "Made for VFC/KA/GP".

Thanks for the quick reply and help.

So now I'm looking to either replace the flash hider with one that has CCW threads for the outer barrel and CCW threads for the suppressor. OR an MK12 style suppressor with CW interior threads for the stock VFC flash hider.

I find this surprising. So far any SPR flash Hider & Ops Inc SPR style supressor I've come across both have CW threads for the suppressor interface. I have the G&P 12th Ops Inc can as well as a G&P SPR Flash Hider and a King Arms SPR Flash Hider and they all work with each other. I can't speak first hand for the VFC but all images I've found online shows the VFC flash hider with CW outer threads as well.

Are you sure the suppressor has CCW threads? In responding to an inquiry by "RAZR", VFC stated their Flash Hider & Suppressor threading was 22 x 1.0 mm CW threads which is the same as RS. I measured my G&P 12th Ops Inc & G&P & KA flash hiders and they seem to measure a bit smaller at 21 x 1.0mm CW threads. So I'm wondering if the G&P Ops Inc 12th Model is simply too narrow for the VFC version of the SPR Flash Hider

If this is true though, I suggest picking up a King arms CCW SPR Flash Hider to match your VFC's CCW outer barrel and the CW G&P suppressor.

PS. I'd keep the G&P suppressor and just change the Flash Hider. The suppressors are hard to come by whereas the flash hiders seem to be more abundant.

Interesting thread, hope I'm not derailing, but out of curiosity, which OPS suppressor would you guys recommend quality wise?

I've got two MK12 Mod0 builds in the works, just waiting on parts to arrive and I'm tempted to pick up a suppressor for them.

Also, anyone know where to find a KA or G&P M3 scope and the fancy scope rings w/ the railed front ring? Driving me mad looking for them and the ACM M3 clone optic has shitty eye relief... tempted to just go w/ a Vism optic instead.

The VFC one - no contest.
