If you want to really make sure the shroud will never move, drill a small divot in the center of the mark with a 1/4 inch drill bit almost to where the "cone" ends. Put a little blue thread lock on the set screw and tighten everything down. Now that the screw tip is in the divot, there is no way for it to move.
And that is the same spot you would have the set screw for the thread adapter. That way you can put a real flash hider or muzzle brake or whatever else you want on your rifle.
Turn your barrel shroud around and just like magic, you have what looks like a suppressor. With no guts and a large opening there is no lessening of the sound.
My shrouds are open on one end to comply with an obscure ruling by the ATF about what a suppressor is. So DO NOT close that open end and do not buy a shroud with 2 closed ends.

Ok, thanks for the info. That price makes it a little easier to get one, since I dont have to buy another $30+ piece with threads to attach to the barrel first.
I'm not really comfortable drilling that divot, but I assume it will stay in place well enough without it.
Anyway, I think I will probably buy the 4.5 inch model as soon as I can come up with some funds.
