Re: AAC Illusion 9 indexing on sig MPX?
Looks like even IF it can index somehow, you would have to remove the handguard every time you wanted to clean it. I understand that is simple on this weapon. But, it also means that if you are using direct thread and the suppressor unscrew a tiny bit you will have metal on metal contact damaging t...

Re: OSS Suppressors at Shot Show
All the marketing, all the fantastic claims.... Never heard of someone buying one from a dealer, never seen independent testing.
I'd be really really interested in independent testing!

Re: Sealing off gas to threads, O-ring or contact shoulder?
Oh, sensitive sally, I'm sorry. I'll just order a 3-lug from my dealer and measure it out and look at a can in person.doubloon wrote: But since you're being such a dense d*khead about it I'll keep the answer I found.

I'm thinking he wants the specs for the 3 lug adapter ;-) Hmmm ... may have to google harder. Yea, thanks smartass, but be my guest. I looked, found nothing except the difference between Gemtech's and Silencerco's major and minor pitch. No Oring. So Bender, can you are least say that the shoulder b...

Sealing off gas to threads, O-ring or contact shoulder?
Taking a look at Silencerco's three lug, that shoulder they have for the threads, is that for a contact engagment of a mating shoulder inside the can, or is that for an O-ring? https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0157/8968/products/Octane_3-lug_1024x1024.png?v=1391014552 Fat chance, but does anyone ha...

Re: rugged surge vs silencerco omega- video comparisons
seems shifty to test at the muzzle on one then behind the suppressor on the other. at that point how do you know the at the ear #'s were measured the same way.

Re: LaRue Tactical Tranquilo
23oz + mount weight, no thanks.
I'm in the market for a another 762 can, but no way will I buy anything that's over 14oz total, it's just not worth weighing the guns down of you are actually going to carry / use it.

Rumor at SHOT was that it was never HK Germany into OSS. It was HK USA, and last I heard there was an issue between Germany and USA, maybe HK USA looking to be sold. I don't know.

Re: Massive blowback in Colt AR .223 with ASE-UTRA SL5 .30 cal
Adjustable gas blocks have been my go to on the AR15, when shooting suppressed. It's still going to get dirty, but not as quickly, and the rifle will cycle smoother once you find the sweet spot. I laugh when people are all "i must have a quick attach can" and then a week later are "I...

Re: Where is SilencerCo?
Someone told me SiCo was running three shifts and 200 people. I don't think they've "gone" anywhere.
(no idea if those numbers are true, but they did just post that they sold their 5000th Omega just a couple months after release)

Re: New Sig SRD762Ti Silencer In Stock!
17-18oz is "extremely" light weight? 300TM at 14oz, Thunderbeast Ultras at 10-12oz don't think so.
I was actually really disappointed with the weight of the SIG 762 cans. The 556 however... Looks like the Ranger3 a lot of people actually wanted.
