The Barrett QDL .50 BMG FDE suppressor (Barrett part no. 12364) is the Flat Dark Earth Cerakote version of Barrett’s quick-detach big-bore can. Barrett engineered it to bring sound and signature reduction to its .50 caliber rifles while keeping full function and reliability. The QDL slides over a proprietary recoil-reducing muzzle brake and twists into place with a lock ring, and the ported brake can be run on its own when flash is the bigger concern. Inside, redundant 360-degree CNC welds contain the pressure of the .50 BMG, and the dual-layered tube is built from high-strength alloys. The FDE finish suits a desert or earth-tone rifle build.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the FDE QDL different from the black one? Only the finish. Barrett publishes the same specifications for the black and Flat Dark Earth versions.

Do I need ATF approval to buy this? No. As of October 9, 2026, ATF no longer requires Form 4 approval, registration or a tax stamp for suppressors. It transfers on a Form 4473 with a background check through a Class 3 (SOT) dealer. State and local laws still apply.

Will it fit my Model 99 or Model 95? Barrett lists the QDL for the M107A1, and notes that the QDL muzzle brake kit is required to run it on a Model 99, Model 95 or MRADELR. On the M107A1 it attaches over the proprietary recoil-reducing brake.
