    Fake Supressor (no threads?)

    Im curious if anyone has/sells/can find a fake supressor for a Sig p220/p226 that attaches to the front of the gun without threads! Perhaps its some kind of rail attachment?

    I have no intention of actually firing the gun, it would be completely for the cool factor of having it and goofing around.

      not aware of any, and they won't look cool whatsoever. sorry

      Goofing around with the gun doesn't sound like a great idea either

        Not familiar with fakes, but there are real ones that more or less snap on to the flash suppressor.

            I've never seen anything that would attach without threads, and I don't think you'll find what you're looking for. However, this is just asking for trouble anyway OP.

            If an LEO sees you with what he thinks to be a suppressed pistol in CA it's likely going to be a "put on the ground & cuff & [maybe] ask questions later" kind of situation. Or simply get you shot. Or robbed, by someone who wants a suppressor.

            Keep your real guns for real shooting, get a high end airsoft gun for playing around and looking cool. Some of the nicer airsoft guns are very "true to spec" to their real counterparts, and can be great for cheap draw & target acquisition practice in the garage or yard.

              Vivid imaginations. Many people use fake cans on rifles, it is often a good way to meet barrel length requirements when pinned and welded. How often do those guys get thrown to the ground or robbed?

              I'm not saying I would do it on a pistol, in fact I think it's a silly idea but it's not my gun

                    Not really any way that I can think of to "permanently" attach a can to a barrel on the Sig p series pistol. Now, if you had a 1911 it would be very easy to get a threaded barrel and silver solder/weld a fake can to it and you would have a tacticool/mall ninja pistol.

                    Don't worry about what others say, a fake can is NOT going to get you shot or robbed. People use fake cans every day in CA.

                    Example:


                    This is kind of cool:http://www.ftfindustries.com/mm5/mer...tegory_Code=FS

                      It wouldn't need to be permanently attached if the barrel wasn't threaded. You could get a long barrel made and have a fake can that slips over it

                        Good suggestion. How would you lock the can to the barrel, though? A pin?

                          I wouldn't even bother with a way to lock it. He said he doesn't intend on shooting it so I think just a precision slip fit would work

                            Yeah, a friction fit would be fine if OP wasn't going to shoot it.

                            Well OP, there you have it. Like 707electrician said just buy a longer barrel like ones used for SSE and slip a tube/fake can over it and bingo you have yourself a tactical toy.

                              A threaded P-series barrel is less expensive than a threaded 1911 barrel and requires far less fitting...

                              I'm sure you're both right, there is very little risk of him having LEO trouble using a fake suppressor. My instinctive reply was "why would you do that, that's stupid, and you need to stick to airsoft" seemed rude, so I figured "hey, think of some other reason to suggest against it. But hey, some people have too much money, and it's his "toy" so he can play with it however he wants.

                              Oh wait, it's not a toy, it's a firearm.
