- description
Hanging a silencer off a standard AAP-01 pushes the whole thing forward and you end up with a very long pistol. This part solves that geometrically: it replaces the outer barrel with a threaded connector, so the silencer slides back over the inner barrel rather than bolting on past the muzzle.
The result is a gun that gains a suppressor without gaining much length, which is the difference between something you can holster and something you cannot. The thread is 14mm negative, meaning counter-clockwise, which is the common airsoft standard.
It is a machined part, which is why it is listed as CNC. No weight or material figure is published for it.

Good to know before you buy
Your inner barrel is left exposed inside the silencer, so this only makes sense if you are fitting something over it. On its own it leaves the front of the gun looking unfinished.
The silencer has to be long enough and wide enough to clear the inner barrel. A short, narrow tracer unit will not work the same way.
This replaces the outer barrel rather than adding to it, so the stock outer barrel comes off and goes in a drawer.
Action Army issue diagrams rather than datasheets for their accessories, so no machined weight is published for this connector and nothing further is published.
Frequently asked questions
Why not just screw a silencer onto the standard barrel?
You can, and the gun gets that much longer. This keeps the overall length down by letting the silencer sit back over the inner barrel.
What thread does it take?
14mm negative, counter-clockwise, which is what most airsoft silencers and flash hiders use.
Can I use a tracer unit on it?
Only if the tracer is long and wide enough to clear the inner barrel, which many are not. Check the internal dimensions first.
Does it fit the compact?
Yes, both AAP-01 frames are listed.
Is a silencer included?
No, the connector only.
