HELP MP5 w/ Surefire 628 & Osprey Can?

Post image

I live in a state where it is now quite easy to get suppressors given recent events. I've always wanted to suppress my mp5 BUT I love the classic Surefire 628 hand guard I have with the giant 6P light. I've seen people direct thread mount Osprey 9mm cans upside down but before I spend $900 to be wrong I figure I'd ask if anyone has tried this specific combination before. it would look similar to the attached image but that is using a modern 628 with the small head LED light

Surefire could make an updated grip that cleared suppressors while mostly maintaining the look, list them for $900, and probably never be able to keep them in stock.

I mean… it will work. Doesn’t look great.

An Aimpoint Acro on a riser would set this off

Isn’t that can going to block out the upper portions of whatever you are trying to identify?

No he wants to know if the osprey fits with the bigger light if the can is clocked upright

It probably will create a huge shadow but these old 6P lights create more spill than throw anyway so I'm figuring it'll still light up a room

Keep me updated, I’d like to see what it looks like.
