Allen Engineering AEM5 Suppressor
The Allen Engineering AEM5 Suppressor serves as a direct replacement for the MK12 SPR. It is secured to the firearm through a mount (not included) and a collar that fits over the barrel for proper alignment. The suppressor is attached via external threads on the mount, which centers on the adapter fitting. A 20-degree taper on the adapter ensures that the silencer is firmly locked onto the barrel, effectively sealing gases within the suppressor and preventing it from loosening during use.
The Allen Engineering AEM5 is particularly valued for its repeatability after removal from the rifle, a feature that is essential for precision shooting. Although the suppressor measures 8.8 inches in length, it extends only 4.5 inches beyond the muzzle device, as a significant portion of its length is integrated into the reflex design.
Each Allen Engineering suppressor is meticulously assembled to ensure concentricity with the mount, thereby reducing any adverse effects on the projectile’s trajectory post-bore exit. The tapered mount on all Allen Engineering suppressors facilitates consistent alignment with the bore and ensures reliable return to zero after removal for transport or maintenance, while also mitigating misalignment risks from accidental drops or bumps. It is compatible with Type A Standard AE/OPS style brakes and collars.

This was the perfect finish to my MK12 clone build. It just looks right and takes the abuse. Thanks White Rhino Arms!
