The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24, and you would just want a muzzle device listed with the same thread pitch and compatible with 30 caliber, or 7.62/308.

Quality is imbued into our barrels from the start. We start with the best materials, either certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless. From there, each barrel goes through a battery of tests at each operation until finished in Nitride and final inspected. All barrels are individually checked for headspace by precision custom hardened gauges.
