The issue is they're nla. How much are you gonna spend on a parts kit? Starting 1,200+ And building it. Throw in the tax. The building route is no longer feasible. This is very evident in the ak47 part kit market. If one doesn't have an ultra rare kit ie North Korean, or even ddr. The value isn't there.
Sooo much easier to just change out the muzzle device on the scar if it's too loud for you...
