Only if the barrel is "Apex Ready". Otherwise you would have to do some custom work.

The only 2 barrels that the apex fits without any modification or extra parts, is the one it came on, and the lapco apex-ready as far as I know. There are some adapters you can buy to put the apex on though. If you don't want to buy an adapter, I hear you can do it with some electrical tape.

I just mounted mine on a J&J with electrical tape. Works perfect. I even made it tight enough I can unscrew the barrel by twisting it. I'm not a big fan of the trick shots. I just wanted it for the flatline effect. Even in Full Auto I haven't had one break.

^ Just make sure you use enough that it is a very good fit.  A loose apex will not be fun.
