Hi guys!

So is anything else compatible with the Smith Enterprises Vortex flash hider, that isn't made by SEI?  Their website says they are now concentrating on military/LE sales only.

I see the Smith Vortex FH's for sale regularly, If that's what you want why don't you do an internet search? I'll keep an eye out and post the next one I come across. I'm guessing you'd like it to be threaded, 5/8"-24, correct?

i should have done this before my first post, but I just took a look on GB. Is this what your looking for?

Both my rifles HAVE the flash hiders...but SEI is now restricting the .30 caliber sound suppressors to military/LE.

That looks just like the ones on the rifles.

Guess I should've specified.

What is compatible with what?

So, If I'm understanding you correctly now, You were asking about suppressors to fit the Vortec FH, not looking for the FH. I'm not in a state that allows suppressors, so I'm not that knowledgable, but for the most part, I get the impression that the suppressor mfgs design their mounts to fit their cans not the other way around. Every mfg that I'm aware of has their own proprietary FH/mount, that includes Surefire, AAC, YHM, and Gemtech. Even the Gemtech Vortex type FH/guick mount has a different mounting design than the Smith vortex FH mount, even though they both have the exact same FH design.

I relooked at their website (SEI) and I read it wrong.

It says "military/LE or class II/III dealer only".

Still have to fart up the money.

Bummer about being in a restrictive state!  AZ just passed we can hunt with a sound suppressor!

Agreed, I'm hoping to retire down south so that I can build some SBRs and enjoy shooting without ear pro. I have started to consider suppressor mounting on all of my guns, and since they're pretty pricey, I'm figuring on one or two .30 cal suppressors that I'll switch from gun to gun. I'm hoping to get down to try out a few before settling on one. I noticed that only some of the Mfgs list the sound reduction capabilities of their suppressors.

I found this to be of interest, if you haven't already seen it perhaps you will also.
