Yes it was and thank you.Here is my AAC SDN-6. Is that what you are looking for?
What muzzle device are you using to mount it to.
Doc
I really like the Forward Controls 6315KM KeyMo A2 Flash Hider.
Here is the 5.56 one. I also use the 308 ones also.
Doc, call them or email them asap. They have a list and you might have to wait a few months depending on their backlog. I just sent one in after being on the wait list for a year. It’s worth the wait, I had another one July 2020 and I love it. I used the area 419 hellfire mount which allows me to run their brakes and linear flash suppressor and easily change to the suppressor with what has been a repeatable shift in POI.
I sent my sdn6 and m42k to Ecco machine last year. I didn’t weigh or measure them (really wish I did) prior to sending them in because I was too excited to get the call to send them in. Here is a few pics of them and weight post conversion with keymo adapter. I like the forward control 6315km

I'm not aware of any expedite Nick offers. In fact, I think he slammed someone that tried to pull some big shot jump the line BS and told them to go F off.
I have an SDN6 and SD556 in there now, dropped off (local) 2 weeks ago after getting on the wait list last August. Don't know why I waited so long.
He did just hire a FT employee to help him and his wife, and says he expects the wait list to get shorter over time. I think it would organically get shorter anyway with most early adopters already converted, but they still seem to get 80-100 cans/month to process. He makes his own cans and tons of common and even one-off mounts too.
He's also got a bookface page and is quick to respond there.
Theirs someone else doing the same thing you could pay for quicker turn around then
There's a guy in one of the FB silencer groups, Bryce something. probably him, Meh. Nick is the best and is close by.
This statement from Nick would indicate otherwise. FWIW, the wait is now down to around 4-5 months and should improve with his new hire coming up to speed.
"Now a statement with a bit more sour tone, but that needs to be heard by a select few. We don't care who you are, who you know, how much money you have or how influential you think you are. The broke 22 year old nobody knows who just managed to scrape together enough money to buy one or two cans gets the same quality of service and level of priority as the "connected" millionaire with hundreds of them. But that can change if you try to use the power you believe you have to force us to bend to your will, because if I'm pushed to choose between using my finite resources to help one guy with 50 cans or 50 people with one can each, it will be the latter. Our customers make us who we are. *ALL* of our customers, not just the wealthy or well-connected folks."
Well said…….
I have a M4-2000. What would be the advantage to this service? What would I gain/lose?
Get rid of the crap ratchet/pawl QD system and convert to industry standard 1.375x24. You can use almost any mount system you like. Want to change it up? Get a new muzzle device and adapter and go for it. Direct thread? Just get the adapter. You're not married to one MFR for the mounting system.
I had terrible RTZ and POI shift with my 762SDN6 on my bolt gun. Even though I always held the pawl down when mounting/dismounting, it was showing signs of wear and would eventually need repair. AAC (reformed under PSA) says pound sand to all owners now for any warranty. While ECCO and others can repair them, why bother at this point? The can design is a bit dated, but this breathes new life/usefulness into it.
Con: You would have to buy new muzzle devices.
I went Xeno and am selling all my take off AAC mounts, already sold half of them on that other AR site.
Does the conversion make lighter/ heavier, longer/ shorter? Or no change? I have multiple cans do I don’t have to switch them.
Depends on the mount system used.
Xeno is slightly longer than AAC OEM. Many others like Q or Griffin and others will be closer to AAC OEM with the can covering all or most of the mount. All will likely be a little lighter. AAC is a bit dated. Not the heaviest or lightest, not the loudest or most quiet. It's an investment for sure to change but future proofs the cans.
ECCO can also repair them if need be.
See my posts above the griffin taper mounts add a tiny bit of weight and an even small amount of length…..
Suppressors - Attention all AAC owners
Hellfire, and get the Hellfire linear comp for the 5.56 when you're not running a brake or the can. Personally, I was not impressed with my N6 on a bolt gun. Way too heavy.
www.snipershide.com ECCO finished my cans last week. I was traveling and haven't had a change to go get them yet.
