I think I'd like to replace the thread protectors with them.

What are some good ones?

If you aren't going to put a suppressor on, I've used the Noveske KX3 on a 10.3 bbl, didn't really notice much difference outdoors, but people shooting around me did. Indoors it seemed to mitigate the blast for me a little compared to the A2 flash hider I used previously.

I am very fond of my Troy Industries Claymore (This side toward enemy).
Does a great job!
