The result is 7+1 capacity, a cleaner profile, and depending on material, a significant reduction in muzzle weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the complete solution.

At 4.9 oz (139g), it reduces muzzle weight by 5.3 oz (151g) compared to the OEM 5-round tube and limiter combined — nearly half the weight of the steel version. Virtually rust and corrosion-proof. This is the choice for shooters who want the lightest, best-handling M4 possible. It counts as a 922(r) compliant part, but does not have an engraving like the steel tube has.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003esteel tube\u003c\/strong\u003e is machined from hardened chromoly steel, CNC machined and Cerakoted in the USA from domestic steel. Engraved \"MADE IN USA\" in large letters. At 9.0 oz (256g), it still reduces weight by 1.2 oz (33g) over the OEM assembly. Counts as a 922r compliance part.
