Re: Review: Silencerco Hybrid

Thank you Fulliautomatix.

I was hoping it was user serviceable. Really wanted a can for firing cast 45/70. Still a really neat suppressor!

Re: Review: Silencerco Hybrid

Thank you for the great review! Couple of questions.

Is this suppressor user serviceable?

Can you use the standard fixed barrel mounts from the octane .45?

Thanks, Dan

Re: Difference between the Liberty Kodiak and the Liberty Kodiak TL???

The Kodia TL has a titanium outer tube. The regular Kodiak has a stainless outer tube. I own the Kodiak. The tube is so recicoudly light despite being made of stainless I would just get that. Nice to be able to use an ultrasonic cleaner and put it in the dip. Not to mention the stronger stainless tu...

WTB: SPR/M4 Muzzle Brake.

Does anyone have one for sale? I would be willing to either buy outright or could also trade a new never mounted SPR/M4 flash suppressor plus cash if someone was interested.

If anyone has any leads please let me know.

Gemtech Vortex 2 d and .22 magnum

I recently had my Gemtech Vortex 2 (the first suppressor I ever purchased) upgraded by Gemtech to a Vortex 2 d with full stainless baffle stack and stainless end cap. Just curious if anyone thinks this would be safe for use with a .22 magnum with a 16” barrel?

Thanks,

Re: Is an NFA trust bank account necessary

Well if that’s the case I’ll just get rid of the account. I could always pay cash at my local dealer and then use a money order for the $200. That seems simpler than having a trust account for a purchase every year or two. BTW it is Wells Fargo who is requiring all accounts to have a minimum of $150...

Re: Wanted: info thread pitch Element

Can a rear cap be purchased threaded in 7/16 X 28 tpi for the element? If so is this considered a silencer part? It would be nice to have a rear cap in 7/16 X 28 for the cheetah and then one in ½ X 28 tpi for everything else.

I’m looking at having an MGM .45 acp rifle barrel made for my TC Encore for use with a Ti-Rant .45. Does AAC have any recommendations as to which thread pitch to go with for this project. The barrel muzzle diameter should be 0.725 inches so this leaves plenty of diameter for threads. From what I can...
