    Shouldn't need that, as the larger diameter tube is a heat shield which is spaced away from the suppressor tube.

So far as the ground welds are concerned, I don't think that ground or un-ground welds on the mag housing are indicative of an S gun. More indicative of the manufacturer of the mag housing or at a particular time during the war. Ground welds were a spec. requirement later for the Mk5 guns
