Anyone try Umarex's compensator (dummy suppressor) on their 22LR HK416?

Does it attach to the end of barrel and extend past the barrel, or does it slip over and cover the length of the barrel (or barrel shroud), like the MP5SD? Anyone have any pictures of it installed? TIA.

Looks like it slides over the end of the barrel; all the way back to the front site. Check this one for sale on GB; shows it installed...

Thanks, I ended up getting one. It's just as well that it slips over the exposed barrel shroud instead of attaching at the end as its surprisingly heavy. It's a substantial hunk of metal, not a thin wall part made of lightweight cheap metal.

Can you post a picture of what it looks like? You mentioned the weight. Does the front end of the weapon feel noticeably heavier now?
