Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Plan B suppressor mount system?

The Plan B is a popular suppressor mounting system, originally developed by Q, that utilizes a taper mount design. It threads onto a compatible muzzle device (often using the 1.375-24 HUB standard) and locks against a tapered surface, ensuring excellent alignment and a consistent return to zero.

Why is the taper mount design beneficial for suppressors?

The taper mount design prevents carbon buildup from locking the suppressor to the muzzle device, making removal easier even after extensive firing. It also provides a solid, repeatable lock-up, crucial for maintaining accuracy (Return to Zero).
