Barrel shroud for tilting barrel

A method for allowing a barrel extension to be used with a pistol mounted in a pistol stabilizer assembly or pistol-to-rifle conversion kit, comprising:

• providing a barrel shroud that comprises left and right side walls from which rearwardly extends an attachment member, and an upper member that extends between upper portions of said left and right side walls, wherein said upper member does not extend to a distal end of said barrel shroud, and instead a distal opening is left between said upper portions of said left and right side walls;
• and
• causing said barrel shroud to be coupled to an existing pistol-to-rifle conversion kit or to an existing pistol stabilizer assembly, so that when a pistol is mounted in said existing pistol-to-rifle conversion kit or in said existing pistol stabilizer assembly and a barrel extension is attached to said pistol, said barrel shroud allows said barrel extension to tilt into said distal opening of said barrel shroud and said barrel extension does not hit said barrel shroud.
