I have been looking for a good M4 SBR silencer with dark earth/desert sand color to match my rifle color theme. I am planning to install a muzzle brake with the silencer. Unfortunately I have not been able to find any *good* silencer with dark earth color. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Molly Coat it or use Krylon, works well on weapons too. No Cans here in VT but it should be good to go for you.

I have decided to get the cheaper option of AAC M4-1000 (black) (http://www.advanced-armament.com/product.aspx?pid=191) + AAC Blackout 51T (http://www.advanced-armament.com/product.aspx?pid=728) + Krylon Dark Earth Paint

I have an AAC M4-2000 and AAC Blackout 51T. After 2 mag dumps in quick succession, the can gets hot enough to catch grass on fire. The standard finish that comes on the M4 burned off, or turned color. I think the paint will as well. Just a heads' up.

Here's a link to my YouTube Channel: I'm also known as "Quietcanman" and the video of it being fired... You can tell the color variation by the reflection on the can from front to rear...

Can's are a killer accessory on AR's and anything else.

Enjoy!

Cans work essentially by converting the sonic energy into thermal, so most finishes are going to burn off unless you're only shooting a round ever couple minutes out of a bolt action gun or something.

You might want to look into a cover of some sort if the color thing really bugs you.
